"bro what if a unicorn could answer your deepest wishes"
I don't see what's so crazy about this
In the storybook world where an anti-imperialist candidate is running for office where he would actually be able to disrupt imperialism, yeah I'd support voting for him.
But that would never happen.
I'm not talking about an anti imperialist
Why should a first-world country give a shit about the third-world?
Exactly
In your own low-IQ way you understand
Allah has blessed you with some wisdom Elijah!
I didn’t read your message, I just noticed the part where you said we ought to be in solidarity with them.
I'm talking about a candidate who would simply be more likely to create the conditions necessary for more (in your view) positive change, ie a candidate you think is more likely to cause a progressive movement to form in wherever because of their actions
I don't mean you when I say we
You're not black
I can't conceptualize such a candidate but if for whatever reason he was likely to either actively disrupt imperialist extraction or just be really bad at it, yeah it might be worth voting for him
But I'd imagine there's still better uses for that time.
I'm only talking about voting
Not campaigning or anything else
Because most elections are inconsequential and the result is determined by how districts are drawn and votes are tallied rather than a simple majority
If someone showed me such a candidate, made a rational argument as to why they were likely to hamper imperialist practices, and I lived in a county or district that was heavily disputed and not gerrymandered as to make my voting pointless, I'd vote for them in a heartbeat and tell everyone I knew to vote for them. @monads
But that almost never happens.
Actually rationale is insufficient
Inshallah they would have to make an **EMPIRICAL** argument and show me the receipts behind this candidate.
Trump 2024
MAGA!
PATRIOT PARTY!
Yeah
Nope
No patriot party
Trump is starting his own party just watch
If there's more popular support for Trump under the patriot party ticket, do you think the GOP spoils or implodes as an organization?
Time for some WONK TALKS
the GOP will implode bc Trump will win
Trump wouldn't do that because he isn't retarded
He is retarded.
Fuck the GOP, it’s controlled opposition.
What
What are you talking about
They're one of the two ruling neoliberal parties
You can't be opposition if you're the establishment
Jesus christ you're so fucking dumb it hurts.
