    These people should get some kind of medal for their logic gymnastics

    1. Be lib, your life is consumerism
    2. Encounter people doing something to respond to a genocide
    3. ???trump?troley???bzz???election?lever??kill?one?guy???bzzzzt???responsibility??
    4. Why of course my fellow redditor, the people doing anything about this are immoral since they’re not getting their hands dirty in the voting booth, indeed

      they don’t understand that not voting is a political strategy to force democrats to actually do good things. When you think not voting is a moral failure you’re misunderstanding the fundamental philosophy of democracy (withholding your vote to ensure candidates do good things is literally the core of how democracy is supposed to work)
