the vibes have rotten to the core and now withholding for Palestine makes you the much-maligned single issue voter, as if genocide is just a tally on a fucking pro/con balance sheet. People who saw the mass movement and protests on the ground over the past nine months suddenly concern-trolling about no one ever organizing anything and just being nihilists doing nothing while they are doing, in contrast, 'the bare minimum'. Breaking out reformist thought-terminating cliches and yelling at people with families in Palestine for not immediately being invested and engaged in the campaign of the VP of the current administration that is aiding and abetting the deaths of their loved ones. Total lanyard cultural victory. Americans by and large believe in nothing and have no principles, all they want is eternal 2014.

What do they say when you point out that all you can do in such a state is affect the popular vote?

They say you still need to vote to "send a message."

Yeah but I'm not voting for her to send a message

i mean, people like that don't actually care or keep and eye on things like the popular vote and your effect on it

they've chosen to support the dems, full knowing that the litany of issues with them, and now they NEED to make sure you're willing to stoop to be in the in-group too because so long as I vote blue while you hold out, I'm going to feel like we're not both part of the correct in-group and that's scawy
