Protests, dual power, and even electoralism.

Labour and union posts go to The Labour Community.

Dear lurking liberal shitheads who bashed communists and others who said they refused to vote for genocide no matter how much you claimed they were helping Trump usher in a world of fascist darkness.

Congratulations. I hope you get a good refund price for all the smug moral superiority you've been lugging around for 10 months.

Says while doing nothing other than bitching online, all smug and full of moral superiority.

Seriously, you don't get to do nothing and feel superior. If you don't vote, it means you are ok with either choice. If you are not ok with either choice, take to the streets, start your revolution, do something, but DO it, don't just say it.

Not voting, not taking action in politics, calling people names and then complaining after the fact is not morally superior to anyone, nor is it helpful to any cause. And no, posting online is not taking action.

Also, will this opinion get me banned? Just asking

Not voting, not taking action in politics

Voting is not action. If you vote and don't do anything else, you are not taking action in politics.

It's one more action than doing nothing and just complaining non-stop, which is what a very high number of people does all over the world.

Praying isn't action. 🙄
