“The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change.” - Audre Lorde

Vote or don’t, but always remember that real change can only come from outside the system.

    People on twitter will really be like “you believe in voting? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, firebombing a Walmart” and then not firebomb a Walmart

    You are unserious, uninformed, probably very privileged, since you don’t seem to care about the harm conservative government causes and believe politics is a fun game where you pick sides and then argue online. If enough people vote for your ideology, you can change all the laws to your liking.

    But that would mean actual political work. So instead you dream of your violent revolution like the Christians dream of judgment day.

    Edit: made the insult more accurate.
