I’m gonna start using times when I’ve articulated what I have to say, and someone clearly wants to get into a pointless and repetitious back-and-forth about it, as a good chance to link to activist organizations that people can join to make a good positive difference.
I think this is the behavior of a shill who simply has no argument against the things that are being said, but is on the clock to oppose it in some fashion, and pretending to be so pants-on-head mentally disabled that they can’t comprehend the pretty straightforward things people are saying is the only thing they can come up with that still lets them be aggressive against it.
I think. I have no idea; maybe they’re just a deeply combative person who’s uninterested in reading. Like I say, I think if they are a shill, that this type of behavior actually has the exact opposite effect of what it’s supposed to be doing. If it was me I think I would start talking about anarchism and rebellion and how the left needs to turn to real violence to achieve its ends… like sidestep the whole brain-dead argument of “voting won’t produce electoral outcomes” and try to positively support something that will indirectly get people thinking in a different direction from political organizing, and still be destructive to the country overall.
Here’s a list of jobs with the Biden campaign, for anyone who’s okay with the establishment version of the left and wants a job that’s more productive than optimizing Adwords campaigns to sell sneakers or whatever. Most are in-person in Delaware and pay about $90k.
(I actually completely by accident linked to an activist organization that does have quite a few concrete answers to your question “What good things?” It’s not my problem if you weren’t able to find them. But, what I was intending to do was just totally ignore your bad-faith combativeness and link to some useful resources, instead of engaging in this whole hostile exchange in any capacity.)
Firstly, not voting doesn’t seem to disqualify one from those jobs. So this is not “good things” that one would supposedly be excluded from by not voting.
Secondly, I’m not a US citizen which does seem to disqualify me from those jobs.
It’s not my problem if you weren’t able to find them.
Can you tell me what you’re expecting me to look for? Or even better, to save everyone’s time, just give a link to exactly what it is that conveys what you’re trying to convey? Or even better, if you’re really serious about this whole communication thing, copy and paste the text and provide a link to where it came from? And explain clearly why you’re quoting the text?
bad-faith combativeness
No idea why you think my questions are either in bad faith or “combative”.
If you’re concerned about climate change specifically, Extinction Rebellion is a protest group agitating to turn the governments of the world against their currently mass-suicidal course of policy. Biden’s been able to do a certain amount about it even in the face of pretty stiff resistance from the entirety of our corrupted governmental system, but the current pace of change isn’t going to be enough to give us a livable planet in the future, so getting involved in the solution seems like a good idea.

Here’s Bernie Sanders’s group; they seem pretty effective.
Scans page
I’m absolutely mystified as to how you could think that page would answer my questions about your statements.
You seem comically, almost willfully mystified by everything happening around you.

Nothing is being said. All I see is responses. No answers.
