The answer to this isn’t “just vote HARDER” like the Democrats want you to think.

Just like climate change. Just like the pandemic. Systemic problems don’t have solutions on the individual-level

Making oppression an issue of personal responsibility is widespread emotional abuse https://twitter.com/QueeringPsych/status/1059580240232620034
The Dems aren’t trying to “save” us. They just want to keep their power. And it’s clear in their choices b/c they haven’t enacted any long term changes or fought to keep rights as every 4 yrs the situation got deadlier b/c they enabled republicans https://twitter.com/queeringpsych/status/1283060715159523330?s=21 https://twitter.com/QueeringPsych/status/1283060715159523330
We need to start calling out what this is & stop fear-shaming ppl for critiquing how Dems are carrying themselves

Voting is a tool that only works effectively if the system is fair. What are the Dems doing to fight for this? What are we doing besides voting to hedge our bets?
Even if Dems win this rigged election, this doesn’t solve the root issues, if the status quo is maintained. The status quo got us here. If the Dems continue to block systemic change in favor of status quo, we‘ll end up with someone worse than Trump later

We need to be figuring out mutual aid for the winter/flu season/2nd wave of COVID-19

It’s really frustrating that both parties are spending so much money on campaigning & encouraging people to focus on political theater & not preparations https://twitter.com/queeringpsych/status/1293982697841451011?s=21 https://twitter.com/QueeringPsych/status/1293982697841451011
Imagine both parties spending these *5 months* starting to get the infastructure together for remote learning?

The Dems could‘ve protested & fought for UBI, healthcare, etc, leaving politeness & political games at the door

Gov & community resources prepping for the vulnerable
Those who can, keep protesting regardless of who wins. Biden is advocating for us to be shot in the legs by cops so the fight doesn’t end if he wins

How are we feeding each other this winter? What about kids? Support abuse victims? Clothing? Bails? Etc https://twitter.com/queeringpsych/status/1059580240232620034?s=21 https://twitter.com/QueeringPsych/status/1059580240232620034
