We Need Your Vote Your Vote Is Everything An Uncast Vote Is A Vote In Favor Of The Greater Evil - Blog Posts

1 year ago

You know I used to think "tumblr's absolute refusal to actually engage with the Trolley Problem in favor of insisting that there must be a third, morally pure option that doesn't require them to make a hard decision and anyone who asks them to make a binary choice is just a short-sighted idiot is really fucking annoying, but I guess it's not actually doing any harm".

Anyway that was before we asked tumblr at large to decide between "guy aiding a genocide but making progress elsewhere" and "guy who would actively and enthusiastically participate in a genocide and would also make everything else much, much worse for everyone elsewhere" and the response was that there must be a third, morally pure option that doesn't require them to make a hard decision and that anyone who asks them to make a binary choice is a short-sighted idiot.

please please please please vote the mindset that allows people to step back and not vote is exactly the same mindset that allows palestine to happen it's the same thing. you guys get that right? if you step back and the greater evil wins then you passively supported the greater evil. it's not fun but it's true this is how it works when fighting for queer rights. this is how it worked with the holocaust. this is how it works with palestine. and that's also how it works with the 2024 election I don't care if you don't like biden it is so important that trump not win. if trump wind everything goes to hell. I cannot articulate how bad that would be. google “if trump wins” and read every article you have access to. read the wikipedia page for agenda 47. it makes me want to cry I live in constant fear of what will happen if trump wins please guys trump won in 2016 because we thought we could afford to not vote and he'll win again because we think we shouldn't vote your vote is your most powerful weapon. a blazing tool. it will do more than a thousand angry tumblr posts ever will. by existing in the same space as a crime you have a moral obligation to prevent it if you decide to not vote because you don't want to support a lesser evil then you are supporting the greater evil when it wins and that means you're doing exactly the same thing as every damn country that's not getting involved in palestine there is no moral reason to not vote in this election. there is no moral reason ever to not vote. you have the power to make the next four years not-great rather than horrific. USE IT. if trump wins and you didn't vote then you supported him and you supported every reprehensible thing he will do in the next four years please please please vote in the 2024 election. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I cannot believe there are people out there who care about these issues who think that not voting is the better option we need your vote your vote is everything an uncast vote is a vote in favor of the greater evil apologies to all non-americans! but this is important and I'm mad about this so looks like it's going on main
