my goal has never been to dissuade people from voting, but to counter reactionary liberal narratives about its structural importance in the face of fascism—specifically in the terrain of nat’l politics (where the average person has v little “influence,” on the daily happenings).

the entire professional liberal apparatus—from the media, to athletes, celebrities, entertainers (many of whom who’ve been relatively apolitical their entire career), etc—has been flat-out LYING to and misleading people about the reality of our situation.

the vast majority our material actualities remain the same regardless of who occupies the slave built white house. even if the chokehold loosens itself ever-so-slightly, for those of us domestically, we are still in a goddamn chokehold unable to fully breathe.

60 million+ ppl are going to vote for a serial rapist, imperialist, architect of the carceral state. and if successful—will celebrate it as a win, genuine progress, a step-closer to a better world, simply b/c he isn’t the other guy. that’s where we’re at, i’m mourning that today

my thoughts & solidarities are w/the colonized, racialized, imperialized, and super-exploited of the world who’ll continue being on the receiving end of the US bombs, economic terrorism, coups/destabilization, subjugation, carceralism, state sanctioned executions, alienation, etc

...that’ll largely go under-the-radar—even more so than it is now—if/when a democrat is in-office because everyone will be at brunch and going back to not having to worry about the crimes of US capital, the political economy and the presidency.
