    Because it sounds like you’re not doing anything to achieve what you want.

      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.

            Is this larger strategy the same one that gets you martyred for describing?

              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.
