Here is what happens when apathy wins, and people don't go out to vote:

In 2017 I spent 3 months hunting, literally hunting for food, in what is supposed to be a first world country.

White people had it fine of course, just brush things under the table and it will go away, just like my last thread.

I spend 6 months without power, think about what is asked of us browns.

But I was told Joe had dementia!

I think the issue is everyone in America had a good person they could've voted for who hasn't really ever done anything wrong or voted against anything that would make peoples lives better and you have Joe Biden, who has outwardly said nobodies lives will change, is very likely a rapist and a racist and many people from all over America decided the rapist who isn't going to change anything was a better choice than Sanders.

The people who picked Biden are insane. I realise that Biden is still a better choice than Trump, but to say people are privelaged as a survivor of abuse to say they don't want to vote for an abuser is crazy.

So at what point do we want to admit not every non-voter is a privileged white person?

Also feel like these discussions gloss over the fact that 80% of the states in this country are more or less spoken for in a general election. Voting downballot is super important though, no matter what.

Why not blame the racists for voting for the racist?

Alternative power structures are the only thing that you can rely on, governments will only ever do the least amount of work to retain civility and keep an oppressed class working for the benefit of the few.
