Guess what? Other forms of organizing and protest will also be opposed. And we should still do them.

If a movement is real and serious that organizing to vote in primaries is really not a big deal. Blue no matter who is really just a last resort and if you don’t want to then you should at least spoil your ballot.

PS anything you consider more effective than voting can still be done btw. Change is not an all or nothing (tho given the mindset around many here they should not be surprised when they really do keep getting nothing)

    if voting changed anything, it would be illegal. If voting mattered, they wouldn’t let us do it.

    On the contrary, if voting didn’t change anything they wouldn’t suppress it so hard.

    Exactly the same legacy as people who do

    Then you’ve proved my point that voting doesn’t hurt. This is literally the argument, you have arrived.

    The Democrats can’t help you. They can’t save your friends. They can’t protect people.

    Except for women, queer people, immigrants, people who rely on welfare, etc. Just because they aren’t the solution to most of the problems doesn’t mean that no one is affected differently based on the winner.
