  • Voting doesn’t change anything. Not voting kills us.

    We vote to buy time. We use that time to perform direct action.

    These 2 things are not mutually exclusive.

    This is what I’ve been trying to tell people, especially young lefties.

    It just does not make sense to me why you would look at a broken system which gives a massive advantage to one party, see that the people trying to fix the system all belong to the other party, and arrive at the conclusion that both parties are equally at fault and the only solution is to throw your hands up in invisible protest.

    It would be one thing if they just said they didn’t care, but they seem to be convinced they are actually able to affect change this way.

    It’s like finding yourself in a fist fight and seeing your buddy just standing there laughing.


  • I’m pretty sure the post is addressing the people who do not have ADHD and who go around saying things like “that’s just called being forgetful” when someone describes their symptoms. I see it often in response to people openly questioning if they might have ADHD.

    I don’t think it’s addressing people who have ADHD but don’t know it yet or are questioning.

    I have been experiencing a lot more of the “ADHD is made up” mentality lately than I ever have before. Not sure why exactly, but I’m guessing OOP has been feeling it too.
