    She’s is a fucking sheepdog, that’s all she is. Giving disenfranchised voters the illusion that if they stick around long enough, they too can have a seat at their table. She’s a snake in the grass that cannot be trusted.

            Your question would be directed at yourself and others like you. I’m not the one confused about which direction to go. My direction has never involved the duopoly.

              No, it was directed at you for the sake of discussion, not confusion. But your holier than thou attitude prevents you from speaking with others properly.

                If I am viewed as holier than thou because I refuse to support the systems of oppression while also having to fight shitlibs defending it, then so be it.

        I’m with you. I mean I agree with their sentiment and I think AOC is the same as the rest. She is after all a part of the machine.

        That said, it’s worth distinguishing the difference between trust and hope. I always hope.

          Hope, in reality, is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man. Friedrich Nietzsche

                Ah so more nihilism. I get it then. Sorry I was assuming different. If you’ve checked out you’ve checked out. It sucks but I get it.

                  You confuse nihilism for refusing to vote against my self interests. By that standard a Democrat refusing to vote Republican is nihilism.

                  Society can’t change if people keep supporting those fighting to keep things the same
