Lol like "harm reduction" is going to save us.

Bad analogy anyway bc the effects are immediate anyway.

If we taxed everybody who didn't vote there be a lot more can you spend your money voter since there is an immediate consequence for not voting.

I'm going to engage in local organizing. I feel like that's much better and I'll be able to protect my community and my family

Interesting... but the ice cream is supporting genocide. Some would rather die than vote for that. And I guess it could be argued that at least the people dieing by going over the cliff had a chance to vote. The ones dieing from genocide didn't.

Another day, another Pug punching left to cover for ranking democrat mistakes. Do you ever get tired or do they reward you for your allegiance? Perhaps you get left nice little scooby snacks.

This is a bad analogy. Harris wasn’t fucking ice cream. A better analogy would be the trolley problem. People get killed no matter what choice you make.

But you know what? The solution to the trolley problem is to not play. I’m not to blame, the people who laid down the track, strapped down the people, and sent a train hurtling towards them are entirely responsible.

Edit: as others have commented - the real solution is to blow up the train before it hits anybody and go hunt down the sick bastard who set up the problem. (In other words - direct actions like sabotage and revolution).

Harris wasn’t fucking ice cream.

Ha. Is that supposed to be the analogy? It kind of makes sense. Libs just eating ice cream while the world falls to shit. That's literally the best that Biden could do.
