    It’s the strategy of contention. Being “ungovernable” pressures the government, there’s a toolbox of available mechanisms for doing this and one of those tools is your voice! You need to speak out at every opportunity and make it very clear that you oppose the genocide. It costs you nothing besides your internet points.

    Don’t doubt that politics of contention are half the reason Biden was forced out of the race! People opposed him as the nominee and donors knew this, so they pressured him to drop out. Granted, they claim the only reason was because he was too old (and he is) but don’t doubt that the uncommitted movement helped to push him out of the race.

    Direct action gets the goods, but it’s not the only thing you can do. You can always always raise your voice in opposition.

    You aren’t going to help Trump by attacking Biden. It’s okay.
