So i’m just gonna say a few things, If this issue is me being MIA and not appointing other mods, okay that’s a fair criticism, I should have been logging in/posting more, but I’m going to respond to a some other points.

The reason I chose this instance is because of the limited options available, aside from my personal affinities towards solarpunk, and reality is joining a US centric general instance would be more hostile towards this community because they are likely aligned with Biden Administration and liberalism. I don’t get why this not being a US centric instance would be a problem on a federated network.

For the record I am an anarchist and my promotion of a third party candidate is as protest against the 2 party system – particularly because they’re the only candidate that advocates on behalf of Palestine – for me at least it’s the same of supporting someone like Vermin Supreme , obviously the guy isn’t going to win, the point is subverting the election ( which is a totalitarian media spectacle) and utilizing it as means of propagating socialist ideas.

So i don’t see how supporting a candidate who will definitely not win is reproducing hierarchical electoral politics, since doing so indicates the futility of electoral politics itself. That argument seems like an overly dogmatic misinterpretation of anarchist principles.

Hello, well it seems like a done decision, I did get pretty disillusioned with the candidate a while back figured I should keep the community up for simply Documenting the campaign, but it’s not really worth the kind of hostility that every post brings, I could message people who are more active and see if they want to mod, but pretty the members on this instance don’t want it here so

absolute bullshit, it burns more in carbon to run those machines than it takes out, this is making shit worse at an accelerated pace

I say wait for election day and flip a coin, that’s basically how elections are determined, the arbitrary whims of the margin of people in swing states who go out to vote or not. You’re individual vote does not make any difference in the absence of mass organized action, and the Democrats are terrified of exactly that kind of mass organization because otherwise they wouldn’t be so secure in running corporate puppets like Biden.

If you wanna be realistic about it Voting in any state other than a swing state is basically ‘throwing your vote away’ : Vote Blue in a Blue State you’re just throwing it in a pile, Vote Blue in a Red State it’s just as much a symbolic protest vote as anything else. Only in a swing state will your Vote make a tangeable difference which is why those are the only states either party even campaigns in for the most part.

my opinion is those boats are too damn big

you know they used to have these things called sail boats

it’s time for a decentralized unionized taxi app

it’s amazing there are people who’s job it is to write this bullshit

yes, but that’s not what a ‘spoiler’ is

true and justice my dear brother/sister

I don’t like JFK Jr, at all but how is he a “spoiler” if he’s running in the primaries? I thought 3rd parties are spoilers.

Absolutely, which is why the Democrats need to embrace progressive policies that are supported by the vast majority of americans like Universal Healthcare and Marijuana Legalization.

Also, how did LBJ pass the Civil Rights Act when half of his own party were Dixiecrats?

another thing you should never do is look into private trackers

true. I know a lot of people are in similar situations, that’s what kept me on facebook for years. I’ll just say at this point, twitter could just die any day now, starting DMing people if you haven’t already and find another way to say in touch.

Personally I prefer to just not pay for anything exept internet and torrent and stream everything for free, much cheaper, no restrictions

Matrix is hella buggy, Session part of the lokinet weird ancap crypto scheme, XMPP is god tier

Briar, now that’s a thingy
