The kind of guy who will say "exciting new statistical method" and actually mean it

There are tons more that you can contribute to right now instead of scolding people about a vote that will not happen for months and may not even have B/T alive to see it

Just off the top of my head, 5 victories won by leftists without a vote for their liberal party: bus driver union wins pay raise, green and LD gain seats, amazon workers win representation, UPS drivers win pay rise, Joe the nazi run out of Liverpool

Posting something persuasive or informative can make a difference. Just scolding people in post form does not.

Okay okay. More seriously. We now need to pressure Labour moving forward (as my union has voted to do). We need to fight to not just have a new coat of paint on the same policies.

a probably unpopular opinion is that the escalating culture of leveraging bullying and victim-blaming to coerce people into voting for democrats has actually been an acceleration mechanism for fascist creep, and bears significant blame for where we are today.

Holy shit hahahaha. Okay bud. You have lost all grip on reality if you think Trump's stuff is getting papered over. Lots of people sadly don't care but it is getting LOTS of coverage. Plenty of people really do hate the guy as well

Again, strategy note. This does not work. Pressure the dems to do better, not the voters. People will turn out more if Biden makes more daylight between him and a cartoon evil president.

Everyone I have asked (okay so 3 people) has said immigration is why they are voting Labour over Green/LD. So that's depressing

It really is amazing how much a viable 3rd party helps. I'm just not voting Tory or Labour. I like my local Green better than LD so that's all done then.

I will be celebrating the Tories losing spectacularly tonight, but won't be celebrating this Labour Party winning. I hope as many Lib Dem and Green MPs get returned as possible, to hold Starmer to account from his left and give a proper basis for a progressive opposition and real change.

If you come to my house and my neighbourhood and go around doing racist genocide apologetics and insane transphobia and my neighbours and I tell you to fuck off repeatedly, that's not harassment, it's community self-defence

Keir Starmer, the future prime minister, explicitly saying that trans women don’t have the right to use women’s toilets, which we have always been using, is giving the green light for people to harass us and do violence to us, as well as to cis women deemed not feminine enough. Don’t vote Labour.

Okay. So get the dems to do better and then tell us about it. That will actually get people out.

For the game, the answer has to be the green energy stuff. There is a lot of solar and wind and batteries that were not there 4 years ago.

We did it, and we have done it, and we will do it, and we are doing it. The time is now, and the right time is now, and it has always been the right time, to keep doing what we are doing and to leave the past burdens away from the future.

Anyhow the best time to address the shit was yesterday, the 2nd best time is today. Demand everyone asking for your vote to support packing the court, stop giving your resources to the police, demand public housing, healthcare, childcare, education, transit, food support and a right to privacy.

Agreed. There isn't a lot to say anymore about the R side. It's time to start figuring out what you're going to do. I suggest pressuring the other side to do better so they will appeal to more voters. I also suggest finding who is near you and vulnerable and how you're going to protect them.

Sure. If you want Trump out of the white house, help us pressure his opponents to do better. Show some explicit current things you are doing that are not voting. Make a serious case that the vote is not just here to placate and distract with your actions.
