Of course it is important to vote.
The important part is that if you are outnumbered by people trying to do morally corrupt things, you should resist by any means necessary. This of course only works if you have enough people on your side.
This posts claims that out power does not lie in the voting both. That it’s a this or there matter. Which is bs, we have power unionizing, and we have power in the voting booth.
If you don’t intend to discount votes, then don’t post that
I can see your point. Right now, the danger isnt avoided by voting though. It has been tried and it failed in the US and most of europe. Democracy has become toothless. Most boundaries have been crossed. Constant brainwashing has won against common sense. Now it is time to demonstrate who is in charge.
I think disinformation is a major part of the problem too. There’s even bots posting on here now.
We can’t fight the problem we don’t know about. Powerful people around the world may like to call it sensorship, but fighting disinformation is important.
We’ve seen this a while back too. When people stormed the capital believing a coup was the democratic thing to do. Before you can gain power by unionizing you need to get people to agree on the necessary actions.
And right now, I think some countries are just too devided for rhat
Thats mostly what I think as well, apart from the too divided.
https://generalstrikeus.com/ was the address iirc.
The „divided“ part is how it has always been. That was what voting was for. But brainwashed people will always agree with the brainwasher no matter their self interest. It is their goal to make us think we are divided - worldwide mind you.
But we are not and if a couple million people take to the streets and stop working, we will bring the system of oppression down.
There have always been disagreements, yes. But it’s not black and white. There’s topics people agree on, and not. And how intensely so.
That’s why we have more than two options to vote, and why new parties pop up every now and then. And people need to be informed of their options, so they can vote in their best interests
