This is the point where, if I was an organiser in the UK, I would start pushing really hard for raising awareness about how the watermelon is symbolic of support for Palestine and I'd start organising watermelon-based protests, including the strategic deployment of watermelons left at the entrances to Zionist organisations.

If they want to push demonstrations for Palestine underground, so be it. Getting arrested as a prisoner of conscience in the UK isn't going to serve the interests of Palestinians.

But imagine how fragile and absurd the Zionists would look if they tried to suppress the celebration of watermelons and public watermelon eating events or if people started getting brought up on terrorism charges for "accidentally" leaving a shopping bag with a watermelon on the steps of buildings.

Not only would judges be virtually forced to throw out any charges laid against people for this stuff but it would be an absolute media coup to have big Zionist organisations playing victim by cowering in terror at a watermelon left on their steps.

It helps because it signals to the DNC that they will not simply automatically win by default with their shittiest, most rightwing nominees because the other option is slightly worse on a couple of fronts.

It shows that people do not see them as a viable alternative to the GOP unless they actually become an alternative to the GOP.

There's a reason why Trump won last time and it's this attitude of entitlement that you've embodied which is at the core of this.

If you're so set upon preventing another Trump presidency then recent history is a lesson for you, or at least it should have been, and attempting to browbeat people into voting for detestable DNC nominees is a failed strategy when you should be pushing the DNC for compromise with people further to the left of you rather than demanding that people further to the left of you capitulate simply because you feel that they ought to because you have a false sense of moral righteousness.

You want my vote for the democratic nominee? Then uphold the values of bourgeois electoralism and earn it.

Not voting for Biden means that Biden is one vote further away from being president.

Now it's your turn.

Not voting for the furthest right party is the same thing as voting for the furthest right party 🤓🤓

From a pragmatic point, what good does voting for Biden do?

Does ranked voting in other countries undermine their two-party system though?

I'm sorry but the math on this doesn't check out.

You're saying that we must join coalitions whose intent is to change the system or we must vote for the Democratic nominee, otherwise we are supporting the GOP?

If not voting for the Democratic nominee is support for the GOP then how isn't joining a coalition to undermine DNC power support for the GOP?

I don't understand this logic.

"Honestly, my stance on this isn't gonna change. If people felt like we weren't taking care of them, yeah, I would feel like we failed. If you wanna interpret that as a bad thing, you can, but you're reaching pretty hard."

Yeah, I'd say it's about time for LTT staff to unionise.

I think that "taking care of people" smacks of the same rhetoric as "we're like a family" and "I like to think that all staff are considered equals here" and just about any other lie I've heard from exploitative upper management types.

Just move to a different instance which isn't so banhappy. There's plenty of instances which aren't so heavy-handed with what they ban.

I never trusted Raddle back when I was an anarchist and why would you with a dev who acts like this?

Monopoly is the menace of free enterprise!!

Yikes! If this kid's an anarchist then he's the wrong type of anarchist...

This is even funnier if you assume that those messages were sent at 3am
