    You’re not the only lefties in US, there’s plenty of lefties saying they’re not voting.

        the difference between me and a liberal is im more then happy to take direct action. I’ll do whatever it takes to fight fascism […] with the ballet box

        in left wing circles most leftists only pretended not to vote

        Not sure if you can have it both ways. How do you take “direct action at the ballot box” while also only pretending to withold your vote?

          The idea was that leftists could apply pressure by threatening to withhold their vote, in retrospect it was a flawed idea but I understand why leftists did it. In the end they mostly voted anyway for Kamala, some voted third party but not a significant amount of people did.
