Okay, well if we agree that Biden and Trump are different in other areas, then what is even the point of this comic?
Let’s imagine that Anna and Peter are competing for the Vancouver regional tapdancing championship. They both had really good performances, and now the judges have to make a decision. Is Anna’s flawless execution of traditional tap integrated with the forgotten styles of the past worthy of winning, or does Peter’s bold new interpretation of an electronic tap genre deserve to take the gold?
No matter who the judges pick to win the regional tap championship, people in the middle east will still be bombed by US drones. Are you going to make a comic about how the tap championship is meaningless because it won’t make a difference in the middle east?
The tap contest is like the US election because, as you argue, they both have no bearing on outcomes in the middle east. Therefore, they’re irrelevant. If a tap contest won’t change the situation in the middle east, don’t make comics complaining about the tap contest’s effect on the middle east. If an election won’t change the situation in the middle east, don’t make comics complaining about the election’s effect on the middle east. It’s not relevant to the discussion. It should be relevant, I agree with you there, but as you point out, this election it simply isn’t. If we want to improve the situation in the middle east, we need to do more direct action ourselves, not vote for it. So stop bringing voting into the conversation about the middle east.
This is a comic opposed to those who claim that The Best System in The World™ is that we must perpetually vote for the lesser of two evils, when both choices are still unacceptably and horrifically evil. Maybe your party and your system … kinda suck? Dontcha think?
It’s also a comic opposed to centrist and conservative Democrats and other status quo warriors who rail against leftists and progressives while silencing us and calling us russian bots and trolls, instead of actually listening to what we have to say. I’ve talked to a lot of other anarchists and socialists on a regular basis, and we’re fucking sick of it. If we’re not even allowed to pressure the sitting president to do better, then what even is the point? You centrists kept repeating the lie that you’re not as cultlike as Republicans in 2020 to get our votes – and then every time a post like this is made or an issue is raised, you get defensive of your genocidal maniac and come out with guns blazing. Many of you even reported me to my moderator/instance admin. Thankfully, this is a leftist instance where your shit isn’t tolerated, unlike right-wing neoliberal instances like lemm.ee or lemmy.world.

that’s not what this comic is doing, this comic is equivocating voting for Trump and Biden…
at least with biden it’s possible to pressure him to do something, with dictator trump we get a genocide in Ukraine, Palestine, and america…
I’m an anarcho-communist who does direct action. I’m so far to the left, Hexbear banned me thinking I was a troll, because they couldn’t imagine someone with views as left as me. I’m a soulist, I want to destroy consensus reality because it’s white supremacist. If you want to have a pissing contest about who’s more leftist, fine. I bet you don’t even want to abolish consensus reality. Yeah, you criticise Joe Biden (as I do), but I struggle to believe that you’ve criticised the actual systems of realism that perpetuate capitalism and genocide.
Lol funny seeing the modlogs. Seems like you evaded bans with alt accounts like “DroneRights” and have been banned by startrek.website, hexbear.net, lemmy.blahaj.zone, lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.world etc for transphobia, enbyphobia, right wing takes, harrassment among others.
Weird lemmy unity. I can’t see what’s been banned but judging by your takes here it’s probably reasonable.
Nah, the startrek.website admins are cool with me. We had a misunderstanding 6 months ago but we worked it all out. That’s why I’m commenting from a startrek.website account.
Lmao that’s not even remotely true. Your lemm.ee account got banned yesterday so you made this one. You even made a post trying to get sympathy for your toxic behaviour.
You’re so full of yourself, it’s pathetic. I bet you believe your own bullshit. You’re the first person I’m blocking in this thread because you’re such a foolish liar.
Note to mods or anyone who thinks this is too harsh: Please look up exocrinous in the https://lemmy.dbzer0.com modlog. They’re a known transphobe and troll, and if they are being honest about being an ancom, then I don’t know of any anarchists who would welcome them into our community, and that’s the truth. You can’t oppress and exclude entire swaths of LGBTQ+ people and still remain anarchist.
I do believe they’re being honest about being banned from hexbear, though. They’re also banned from blahaj and many other instances. I’d recommend pre-emptively blocking this user.
I’m not a transphobe. You’re repeating accusations that it’s transphobic of me to identify as a xenogender, because xenogenders “make light of real trans people’s struggles”.
And yes, it is pathetic that I’m so full of myself. I know. I have narcissistic personality disorder. People tell me all day that I’m pathetic for having this mental disorder. You’re just one more person insulting me for my mental health.

So I looked at the modlog, and it says I was banned from [email protected] for being a “narcissistic psychopath”. Can you confirm you’re asking the mods to attack me for having NPD and being a “psychopath”?

I believe this much lmao, but I think it’s more for being a shitlib than a troll
No, I was banned specifically for comments that gender neutral pronouns exist and that whiteness is a social construct.

Weird lemmy unity. I can’t see what’s been banned but judging by your takes here it’s probably reasonable.
My takes that we should protect trans people? Well sure, it’s along the same lines. I got banned from some of those places for being trans.
Nah, the startrek.website admins are cool with me. We had a misunderstanding 6 months ago but we worked it all out. That’s why I’m commenting from a startrek.website account.

No, that’s a lie

Yeah, it’s definitely me who’s out of line here /s
Gimme a break
