   Even if you're going to hold your nose and vote blue, make those bastards nervous. Maybe them your vote depends on concrete steps to stop the genocide.

   And don't demand a vote from the people who have friends and relatives in Palestine. Shut it. Seriously. No one directly affected by war crimes paid for with your taxes owes you a damned thing. Even if you think Trump would be worse for Palestine. Not your lane.

   Save your outreach for swing voters who might vote for blatant fascism AGAIN.

     Voting with a strategy in mind is not a moral failure.

     How does your vote lead to someone *in office*?

     What funding, what awareness, what actual impact does your vote have?

     At what level does your vote count the most?

     Even if you want to dismantle the whole system, that may start with the school board, not the national level. The fascists understand this. The people doing the work opposing book burners face to face understand this.
