Thinking Green party this year or whoever isn't trying to fuck us over
hard liquor probably
If I dont vote Biden, it's a vote for Trump. If I dont vote Trump it's a vote for Biden. cancels out.
Voting 3rd party is like voting for 3 people it seems, I'll take advantage of that
Cry most likely. Voting doesn't seem very effective and it's less so when the choices are conservative extremist or conservative light.
Don't vote for a perfect choice; vote for the best choice, and keep doing it. You're not going to get 'perfect' right now, but excising actual cancer will improve the long-term health of the beast and enable even better choices in a few iterations.
The bourgeois elections are the least important part of politics
I'll research the voting habits of the candidates and vote for whoever has proven they can vote for what they believe in and not just party lines. So, probably no one.
For president, there's no way I'm voting for the orange convict if he's the candidate, which he probably will be because people that vote republican are morons. Unfortunately, based on where I live, my vote won't matter. I'll vote anyway.
Afroman until he drops out, if he does, writing in every member of the Wu-Tang Clan that I can remember. I'll vote for anyone that isn't blue or red at this point; and that goes double for local and state elections.
I think avoiding political memes & etc is probably a good idea.
I'm gonna become the gosh dang joker yall
Not voting. Both parties suckle only at corporate teats. My domicile is in the reddest state so my vote doesn’t matter & it costs like $10–15 to mail in my ballot from abroad making it really not worth my time or money.
They said vaccines for all Americans during COVID then someone had to come in & asterisk that that doesn’t include Americans abroad. You pay taxes but no services like Medicare are offered abroad & you’re one of the last on the list of priorities so feeling disillusioned is the normal.
Not Trump
Point and laugh
Yeah the political theater is just that-- theater. Aside from occasionally checking in to laugh/sob at how awful it all is, I'll be devoting my energy to things that actually matter.
As for voting, I guess if something local pops up worth voting for I'll vote in that. Nationally, the Democratic Party has shown its enthusiastic support for fascism and genocide so there's nobody I can vote for except maybe Cornell West or whoever the Greens or the PSL run. The one thing I know is, I won't vote for Biden or anyone like him. Arab and Muslim Americans are calling for a boycott of Biden, and it would be like breaking a picket line to vote for him, only 1000x worse becauase instead of exploitative work conditions it's literal genocide.
Ill do what I always do, vote third party. Not that i think itll do litterally anything, i just hope one day enough people do it so we can atleast get some funding for a third party.
Voting is pretty pointless though, I'm going to try and pay as little attention as possible to the contest of warcriminal ghouls as I can. Maybe we'll luck out and have some of those octogenarian creeps die. Atleast then I can have some brief feeling of satisfaction before the world kicks my shit back in.
Feels bad ( if not alittle freeing ) to know you dont actually have a choice in this clown show, and would be just as well off using your political capital shit posting on the internet, or better yet do some irl praxis.
I have become a little active in my county party. Trying to learn the Democratic way of doing things (first impressions: no one is in charge). Hoping to be able to use my database and reporting skills to help improve the ground game for 2024.
I'll just vote for whoever gets the coveted Hexbear endorsement.
Vote for whatever communist third party is available as far as the federal level goes.
tell boss I'm gonna vote, take day off
don't vote, chill and eat ice cream at Coldstone
blatantly lie to coworkers the next day, pretend that I voted
I'm gonna make sure my loved ones are armed and have ammo.
If it's Trump on the ballet. Whoever else is better. Keep Hitler Jr out of office.
A reelection of Trump will prompt seriously considering an exit strategy away from the US.
Passport processing times aren’t too bad right now, but will likely get worse as the election is closer.
