    the point isnt to get trump to win, it’s to pressure biden into stop supporting genocide if he wants to win - like, at least for me in the UK despite gritting my teeth and voting for that prick Starmer last time as harm reduction im not going to vote for him again unless he changes his policy suggestion to reflect the reality that only 9% of the labour voting base support his zionism. If he actually ran on a platform of suggesting a ceasefire and calling for a return to the 1967 voting borders i would happily continue voting for him every year until he left because he would have done one very good thing, as it is though, im withdrawing my vote until he’s actually forced to do something.

      No, the point is to threaten to reject electoralism and show the rest of the US population how farcical it is, and to show that there is a large number of people not buying into this syatem or its propaganda. If you don’t vote for president this election and then vote again in the next one, they were right and you’re really a pathetic cowed-and-beaten loyal subject.

      What? The last election was under Corbyn.

          Does that really count as voting for Starmer though? I get how voting for your MP counts as voting for the party leader, but your local councilors or whatever don’t decide the PM.
