50 sats \ 17 replies \ @AJ1992 9 Jun \ on: Just Don't Vote in U.S Elections ideasfromtheedge
This is right wing propaganda at its finest. Telling people not to vote because they know when more.people vote, they lose. Fuck you spreading this bullshit. Our country is far behind the rest of the world in the categories that truly make a country great and my generation and below will finally help us catch up. Can't wait til the boomers die off.
There is nothing right wing about this. I think if you can step back and realize that both left and right are both highly captured by interests that ultimately want the same things. More power for the government and less power for the people. This non voting position doesn’t choose a side, rather opting out entirely because both options are horrible. Is your idea that someone would spread this because many are conflicted about voting for Biden but certainly would not vote for Trump? And you think the poster is trying to prevent those who are conflicted in an attempt at increasing Trumps chance at winning? If so, I can see where you’re coming from. But I don’t think that’s what this post is aiming at doing.

Not.voting at all is nothing but white privilege in a nutshell. By not voting for Biden if you're anti-Trump you're increasing his chance of retaking office and turning our nation into an authoritarian one.
You're also giving a big middle.finger to women, black people, and every other group that had to fight for their right to vote by not voting.

If you think either political party cares about blacks or women I am sorry to tell you, this is not the case. There is not party for the “little guy” so to speak. Just one party is willing to use that rhetoric because they have determined that is the best way to market themselves and secure more support. Of course you are free to agree or disagree either way I couldn’t care less. But I urge you to dig a little deeper and think what truly matters to some of these people. Also what kind of person strives for these positions of power and what connections does it take to get there? I don’t mean this in a condescending way either so I apologize if it seems that way.

What I don't appreciate it calling me a right-winger, accused me of voter suppression, then puts up a video of how Trumpism I am and now "white Privilege".
Where's the logical in that?
32, woke and broke trying to earn a few sats. GTFO

AJ 1992 is unhinged

AJ1992 at his finest, never disappoint! Seems to forget that the Biden administration is such a disaster that minorities are also turning to Trump. Complicity of mass murder, prosecution of journalists and political opponents, massive state-sponsored censorship and FBI bringing to shame the KGB, funny to scare people of Trump being authoritarian while the dictatorship is already there

You're so far gone it's not even funny. You aren't loyal to this nation, you're loyal to one man, Donald Trump. You believe everything he says even when the facts data and statistics prove otherwise. You believe Russia isn't an enemy of the U.S. (Reagan is rolling in his grave), because Trump idolizes and wants to be like Putin. If Biden is a dictator, then tell me why his son is on trial right now for federal gun charges and Joe has already guaranteed he will not pardon him if he's found guilty. You're in a cult man, you've lost any love for your country and our Democratic Republic and now you just love one man, Trump. It's sad to see really. And you say any organization that puts out facts and data that doesn't fit your narrative is "left winged." Hate to break it to you, but facts and data and statistics don't have an opinion nor do they care about your rhetoric. You are too far gone to be saved at this point. You're the type of.person that would fly a Trump flag above the flag of the USA.

Lol, have fun staying broke. No where on my post will you find that I prefer ANY candidate. You're so illiterate that your making accusations.
Blacks and Hispanics have lower rates of voting and registration than whites.
Voting is correlated with education and income
reply
They have lower rates because Republicans have shut down polling places in their communities or severely limited early voting or voting times. They also institute voter ID laws knowing that these people in poverty can't afford a state ID (they cost $ to obtain you know), and make it extremely difficult to obtain one if you've never had one. Voter.ID laws aren't necessary because when you register to vote you must produce a SSN, along with a birth certificate at minimum to even get on the voter.rolls. Then, you have people who work long days.and don't have time to go stand in line.for hours to vote because election day isn't a national holiday like it should be and employers aren't required to give time off to vote. I bet.you think the Jan.6th criminal convicts are "warriors" too right? What happened to the Republican party of law and order?
reply
why is this right wing? Even a right wing person would tell you to vote.
reply
Because the conservatives do everything and anything they can to suppress the vote.

Call me what you want..I see where this goes.

Both sides ARE NOT THE SAME. Not even close. You're the one stuck in the illusion if you think they are. The differences are night and day, especially in today's political climate. One side is loyal to an orange convicted felon above all else, the other side is loyal to the American people and fighting for the rights of marginalized communities and women, ect. The Republicans have always been a cancer to our nation but ever since 2015 when Trump came.onto the scene, they have shifted their loyalty completely to one man instead of our constitution. I mean today's Republicans are out there on tape waiting to get into Trump rallies saying that "Russia is not our enemy." And other similar stuff. Reagan is rolling in his grave!
