    Know how the “far left” is telling us to not vote this year?

    Ever wonder why that is?

        On lemmy, it’s mostly the same thing. I’m not sure I’ve seen a person claiming to be a far lefter suggesting anyone vote.

        EDIT: I’m standing corrected, and happy to be wrong.

            …. Happier guess? In fairness, it stands to reason that I wasn’t suggesting that ALL of them are Russian bots, but we all can safely assume that many here are.

          I’m far left (anarcho-syndicalist) and I say vote. It’s not that hard and buys us more time to do our organizing and try to build out unions and mutual aid networks while fascism is at least growing more slowly.

      this comment is entirely correct, due to the use of quotes. The far left isn’t telling you not to vote. The “far left” is. Those saying that are not left. Those comments are the output of the right.

      Voter suppression is their game. status quo at worst. third reich at best.

              Right… so… your bullshit accusations are true, but anyone else that calls you out is lying.

              Grow up.

                A. I refuse to, on principle. But that doesn’t mean I’m not serious.

                B. No, just you. I’ve gotten along with plenty of other people I disagree with and they’ve not resorted to literally making things up about me.

                  It’s always funny how you people become victims of things “people make up” about you- yet your ENTIRE ideology is based on things made up about people.

                  Fucking hypocritical if you ask me.

                    No you literally went off about my supposed inexperience and/or lack of education. I guess gaslighting is just normal for you though.
