    The psyop’d to defeatism think the lesser of two evils is the best they can do. Remind them, it’s not. It’s still evil.

    Awareness of the totalitarian tacking tip-toe con may help dispel the groupthink affirmation of succumbing to that. One “side” loudly promises one personal freedom cared about while quietly taking two economic freedoms that “side”'s herd don’t care about, then the other “side” loudly restores one economic freedom their “side”'s herd care about while quietly taking two personal freedoms that “side”'s herd don’t care about, back and forth, stripping you of freedom, keeping you blinded in fear of what the other is going to take from you, divided and conquered. … But try explaining that in a tweet/tictok sized explanation to those who’ve had their attention spans crippled.

    Some say it’s futile. It’s not. Defy that dire prognosis.

    Carry on mendwards. :)

      Yes! Harm-reduction is the last effort! The point is to do everything you can before the elections, so you don’t have to choose between the evils! You vote for the lesser one if all else fails
