For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

I think the acknowledgement of poor math is merely to say "don't nitpick this" but pay attention to my final point.
How do you think about the point that electioneering for the national bourgeois American elections is a trap which sucks in resources and time that could be better spent elsewhere?
Lmao go back to reddit
Edit: because you're doing the um actually posting being criticized by OP but way harder and more cringe
Teach you how you're wrong? You didn't say anything of substance, just being hyper critical and aggro of benign statements and making a false claim which someone already corrected you about. You pulled a "do you even know who you're talking to" to anonymous strangers on the internet because they asked basic questions about why wasting millions on electoral campaigns that have failed to produce any value for over three decades is a revolutionary strategy. Instead of having any response to a valid question you just got angry that someone asked it.
"exceptionally rude and paternal"
Says others are rude and paternal, structures sentences like:
"Guess I should be exceptionally clear"
Clearly you're the master of mature and respectful communication ๐
Here's me being more direct. How is spending your disposable wages on getting 700 thousand votes in a national election doing anything productive for some greater cause or project? Because you say you're not gonna be lectured about it but you ain't exactly said anything in response to the question. What use might be found in 700k in a major union organization drive? Or using 700 dollars a piece to get a 1000 homeless people set up with more permanent shelter? These basic examples seem like a much better way of building meaningful support for a cause than the spectical of the election.
Unless you have a solid answer for that I will continue my "naive paternalistic" questioning of the methods of the party I put my dumb vote in for.
Ahhh...
No sweat then.
The post does not say that. The post is talking about USAmerican elections in general being a way to move money to a consultant class.
Which consultants took PSL money? Can you name the firms or people that were paid? Or are you referring to printing costs or costs of running online ads?
Ask the person who the OP is about. I was merely correcting a misunderstanding.
