Can we please get the order straight? First keep Trump out of office. Them protest and make them hear your voice. I know it's a shitty situation, but this is not the time. The election is in some days and no matter what you do, nothing will change until then. So keep the monster out of the white house.
Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Agreed. Democracy needs to be preserved.
Not to even mention that Trump would be worse.
Live to fight another day.
Unlike 45,000 Palestinians.
Sure. Because I'm sure a right wing authoritarian who not only reads but plagiarizes Hitler would be the better bet for Palestine and would definitely support your right to protest in the future.
But go off.
Lol, you people are pathetic, you don't just demand a vote, you demand an end to any criticism on the gravest sin a politician can commit.
Keep up that projection and strawmanning. It's a great look.
ETA: and whining about criticism and equivocating that I'm censoring you in the process is just the icing on the cake. Are you sure you're not a Conservative engaging in astroturfing?
Projection, pure, simple, predictably boring.
Enjoy your lesser genocide, liberal.
I will. And I'll eat a baby while I'm at it, too.
Olay on YouTube put it this way: you vote for your weakest adversary. Harris may be shit on Palestine but she probably won’t tell cops to just start murdering protesters.
That's the first time I've seen "vote for the lesser evil" phrased in a way to make it actually appealing.
Even if I were a single issue voter on Palestine, I'd vote for Harris, because that's better for Palestinians than not voting for Harris.
Anything less is caring more about my own sense of purity than helping them.
Caring about people in a way where it's more about you being caring than about their well-being is a nasty fucking trap, and not just here.
Literally that was her point. Vote for Harris, but that's not good enough on its own.
Its amazing that despite clearly calling Harris as better top comment is still asking her to shut up until after the election. Way to miss the whole ass point of her words
