it sucks but voting is harm reduction. when both parties are intent on punching the poor to death so to speak, but one party is wearing brass knuckles, we are obligated to vote for the party that’s punching bare-fisted. that takes maybe an hour of our time, and it’s literally the least we can do, so we also better follow up with real mutual aid, acts of solidarity, etc. if (big if) we actually give a shit.

we can vote, acknowledge it it still essentially advocating for profiting off abuse of the poor and powerless, but still know that it’s less harm than the other party. it’s nothing to celebrate or feel proud of ourselves for because it’s not the actual constructive work to be done (supporting people and helping them heal), but… it’s something commonly available to most people that they’re familiar with as an action to mAkE a DiFfErEnCe. so why not?
