      I understand the sentiment of wanting to spite them but they would prefer you vote for Trump because you would be the one person they can use to say that millions of leftists are just accelerationists, and then they can just dismiss everyone to the left of Dick Cheney forever

          Voting for Trump is like voting for Kamala and saying “But I don’t personally support her, just don’t like the other candidates.” Trump doesn’t care what you intended, you still voted for him. Doing that endorses every part of his platform, regardless of how you personally feel.

          Don’t talk yourself into being a contrarian just because democrats are a bunch of ghouls lol

          I mean, vote for PSL if you want to, hell even if it’s a write in and they throw it out. You :vote:d but the system is broken and corrupt and doesn’t honor your will. Or just don’t vote at all because voting in a bourgeois democracy is a sham. Those are far better actions than just voting for Trump out of spite.

      They don’t even want to fight when the R’s win. They just pretend to. Put on a big show, do a march here or there, some snarky comments, ripping up a piece of paper after a speech, and then VoTe bLuE

      A vote for Claudia is, or so I’ve been told, a vote for Trump, so it’s probably much more morally sound to vote for Claudia and you’ll get your fight anyway.

      No need to agonize over your vote. It doesn’t really matter, you’re just one comrade. But as a proxy for your thoughts on American politics, I recommend voting PSL as it helps communicate a socialist and anti-genocide message and helps a party of comrades build itself.
