REMINDER: corporatism IS fascism. USA's political elites are controlled by unelected corporatist oligarchs for whom politics isn't about party or nation but business. checkout how the DNC wants to price out the little people from their fundraisers. this is literal corporate capture but with political parties because oligarchs only care about the state violence they can capture & profit from.

IF YOU WERE NEVER INVOLVED IN POLITICS TIL TRUMP, LEARN ONE THING:
the DNC have always two-timed grassroots activists, no matter how much money they raise for local or state democrats or the DNC itself.
that's why they're pricing out the grassroots nationwide. the bootlicking elite of the DNC depend on billionaire money.
corruption is the gateway to fascism. it's a historical fact.
the corporate capture of today isn't new. it is the 1939 corporatism that never went away.
THIS IS WHY YOU VOTE WITH YOUR PROTEST BOOTS ON
i keep repeating: DEMAND democrats, especially the leadership, say they're antifascist and take note of who does and doesn't.
because it should have made people cringe when an unhinged Nancy Pelosi went on tv in the bowels of Congress to declare WE ARE CAPITALISTS.
who is we? the working classes are not the ones making money out of insider knowledge with a portfolio that has it's own fucking subreddit.
that's her and her cronies, not us.
YES, NO REPUBLICAN SHOULD ENTER THE WHITE HOUSE IN A CENTURY
but if all Dems are gonna be like Biden? then neither should the corporatist bootlickers of the Democratic Party.
and that's why i insist in making a distinction between them and people like AOC or Rashid. especially, Bloomberg's existential threat, Elizabeth Warren.
and then there's Bernie Sanders who was smart enough to leave the party back in the day because he knew the fuckery that was Clintonism.
VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION
VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION
it's not a mandate when the opposition is fascist and the billionaire donors of your party's elite are part of that fascist opposition.
VOTING FOR POTUS ONLY MATTERS IN SWING #ElectoralCollege PRECINCTS
not having direct democracy is why it's easy for oligarchs to buy themselves a party. even the Greens, btw.
so don't worry about some shmuck in NYC not voting. worry about people not voting in fucking Maricopa county.
you're white in the South? STFU & hit the pavement
IF YOU ARE WHITE AND IN A SWING #ElectoralCollege DISTRICT, GO TO WORK
it's not Darnell from the Bronx's job to get your neighbors to the polling places.
especially if they're young or Black or both. that's your job.
don't berate BIPOC or LGBTQI people online for telling you the truth about the fascism in this country: it's always been here, it's just been called Manifest Destiny, white supremacy, racism, homophobia, sexism.
so go to work. we all have different #antifascist work to do
BUT REMEMBER:
VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION
that means you won't be able to delude yourself that you are done just by voting.
let me say it again, with the chest:
VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION. YOUR #ANTIFA WORK IS NOT DONE BY JUST VOTING.
you know this has always been true, but now, you cannot continue pretending it was "those other people's problem". we didn't even have to tell you. Biden has shown his true political face and it's ugly.
so prepare to not rest until you stomp the last fascist
THIS IS WHY SELF-CARE IS POLITICAL WARFARE because there was never a democracy after all and the job will not be done come November.
it's just that you chose to pretend racism, sexism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, classism —all the social and political and economic hates and phobias— had nothing to do to with #fascism.
yet here we are.
so prepare yourself to fight Biden & his brand of Democrats even harder for the bare minimum. they'll sell everybody out for a bad #abortion win
AND WHY AM CALLING Y'ALL WHITE PEOPLE OUT especially if y'all out in the south? because more White people voted for Trump, a Republican, in 2020 than at any time in USA history. in the middle of a pandemic. after sitting at the last minute another illegitimate SCOTUS justice to the bench, Amy Barret Cohen, a woman who is literally in her thiclose to heretical flavor of Catholicism, a handmaiden.
61% of white men and 55% of white women voted for Trump in 2020.
that wasn't us. that was you.
so, please, stop yammering about Black people not voting for Biden. literally, every single Black voter could vote for Biden and he'd still lose.
2024 is about YOU going to war against YOUR WHITE FAMILY, WHITE FRIENDS AND WHITE NEIGHBORS VOTING FOR TRUMP.
and... you know... shutting it about what young people say is their line in the political sand; because, let me say it again,
DEMOCRATS CANNOT WIN WITHOUT GEN Z
so live with the fact y'all need to move LEFT for democrats to win
AND JUST LIKE THAT,
this is, yet again, one of the million ways democrats are fucking it up with #GenZ #Zoomers
