          I think action that can make real change and action you can post about are mutually exclusive, unless you’re really eager to be a martyr for something, and I’m no dr. king.

              because people think it’s the only thing that matters, and while it can be a small component in a larger strategy to make change, people see it as important, and it’s a simple shorthand for ideas most people don’t have the patience to have explained to them.

                  yes im talking about a specific formulated thing, that’s why I used the word “can” or “could”.

                  I guess anyone who does anything but electoralism is silly. I ordered pizza just now. I’m a fucking idiot, I should have voted instead. I cleaned my bathroom this morning. fucking stupid, I should have voted instead. i made noises at a cat, and petted them when they came over. fucking childish, I should have been voting.
