Yeah, accelerationism has a pretty dismal track record. People are, if nothing, very good at adapting to the status quo and a new normal.

Adaptation is survival. Revolution represents uncertainty.

To be fair, revolution in a lot of places has turned out to be shit. Most people just want to be able to get up and do "normal" stuff and not care about anyone else outside of their immediate sphere. Plenty of those don't even care that far. Hell, I often don't. Do you?

Vote Vermin Supreme.

You all and I have a lot more in common than either of us have ever let on, much less felt comfortable with.

Does this mean
That you will vote
Vermin Supreme?

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.

Voting for Vermin Supreme is a spiritual experience. It has nothing to do with actual voting. In that sense, I voted for Vermin Supreme a long time ago.

You don't do it with a write-in. You do it in your own way. And you've got to figure out what that way is.

Let me put it this way; here's a screenshot of the film I've been working on for the past forever:

I write poems like this and spread them into as many minds as I can, including Vermin's. we don't know each other well, but I have made direct contact through various media and he knows I'm out there doing my thing.

Vermin Supreme
The man!

What I think Vermin Supreme understands is that we're probably never going to have a choice that matters as much as we deserve. Not as long as we continue to play the game.

By God did we play the game this time around. We played it harder than before. Because we're stupid.

He does look constipated.

Yeah, but it's not shit he's full of.

No, wait. It is.

No, that's the look of a man who just shat his pants.

I'm glad we all finally have something in common. I'm just sorry that this is for real.

Reasons for voting Biden: least worst option left available.
It is the only genuine reason possible and is funny but not haha funny like the rest of the reasons in the thread

I guess maybe it's weird to run on supreme court issues which the president only influences indirectly,
but I'm kinda surprised Biden isn't framing this election as absolutely critical for women's rights, trans rights, separation of church & state, and the death penalty.

I also think it's a big missed-opportunity to not seize on Trump's constitutional violations and frame Biden as rescuing the constitution. There's a lot of right-wing jacking off about the constitution, and that's a crowd that's been uncomfortable with some of Trump's moves. With the right language, one could reactivate their memory of giving-a-shit about these things.

Could be because he doesn't really want to win.

I think he's limiting himself to regular 2D chess
