you've never seen people push other to vote for the lesser evil in the hopes that the democrats will shift their platform away from these conservative principals?

the only way you could have not have heard it is if you're maga or you're not american.

that's just not even close to what i mean by "remove"

revolution is the only way you can forcibly remove people from power.

that's a lot closer to what i mean by remove, but i don't want to go into detail, as i prefer not to incite violence.

westerner's are propagandized into believing that non-violence is the only viable path to change and are adamantly opposed to self introspection in this regard; there will little to no support for a forced change.

but i'm a westerner, too.

our education makes us see non-violence as an ideal, but we know there are other options. we do not consider those usually, because they are a waste of resources. a persons life or health is considered a very expensive loss. but unusual problems can require unusual solutions.
