    What they might do is sit out the election or make a third party protest vote.

    Which, in our current system, also helps Republicans get elected.

      I honestly don’t care anymore, everything is already fucked. I might start voting the craziest right wingers going forward, bring on the collapse, the Democratic party is just a different sect of rich fucks that do not give one singular fuck about the people they supposedly represent. This whole place is rotten to it’s core.

      We have no culture beyond consumption and money

        This is called accelerationism, it has extremely unfortunate consequences for your minority friends.

          I’m exhausted from caring and just seeing humanity continue to go downhill and backwards with no signs of slowing.

          who said I’m not a minority myself? :)

            Then don’t drag your cohort into hell because you’re being a little pissbaby. If you find it this hard to participate, then don’t. I encourage you and everyone like you to please vote and rebuke fascism, but turning around and burning it all to the ground just hurts people and fixes nothing.

        What could go wrong with electing the people who want the opposite things you do?

        Electoral nihilism isn’t cool or edgy, it’s stupid. Things could always get worse, and definitely will if a collapse happens.
