No. I’m talking about the right-wing propaganda campaign that is spreading the suggestion that no one vote this year.
Being critical of politicians is essential in a democracy. Not voting and suggesting others don’t- and expecting things to change…
is, by definition- willful ignorance.

It’s everywhere lately. It’s mostly something along the lines of both Biden and Trump being bad choices, so just don’t make a choice to “send a message”. Especially with the Israel/Palestine stuff, a large group has been convinced that Biden providing aid to the massacre of Palestinians means them voting for him is immoral. I agree it fucking sucks, but not voting is the immoral option. Remember how Trump tried to move things even further to Israel’s favor.
Some of it is a disinformation campaign to get people to not vote, but I think a large portion of what you see is people who have been convinced of it themselves and spread it organically. It’s impossible to tell the difference though, and it doesn’t really matter that they are different. They are effectively the same, but you can’t tell who actually believes it and who just sees it as useful.
don’t make a choice to “send a message”.
no one has said this.
I have seen it plenty of times. How can you say no one has said it. In this thread, yeah I don’t think so. It’s all over the place though.
Yeah. It’s like we’re re-living The_Donald all over again.
Pretty much that’s exactly what they’re saying. Keep an eye out. They’re around. And they’re obnoxious.
Super Tuesday is tomorrow. And I have decided to not vote for Biden. Does this make me a part of a right-wing campaign?
If you’re suggesting people not vote in November?
Yes.
I’ve always advocated for people to vote, or not vote, their conscience as individuals.
Then I’m not talking about you.
Calling everyone who doesn’t have the same views as you a right-wing conspiracist is what got us into this dilemma.
Nope. It’s what got YOU into this dilemma. I have no dilemma. If you’re advocating that people don’t vote come November- you’re spreading right-wing propaganda.
Wittingly or not.
