Wait until you get to the “voting for any ruler is wrong and participation is complicity” stage

I have been there for a long time, but I am also not completely sure how accurate it really is. I know all the arguments, and I haven't voted because I don't want any sort of responsibility for any of the shit these people do. But at the same time, if one tyrant wants to whip everyone 10 times a day & the other wants to just whip us 2 times a day, I don't see what harm there is in saying I'd prefer ro be whipped less while still working to undermine the whole thing.

It seems like the only real risk is in thinking that politics is some sort of answer to the problems & just waiting for someone to save us instead of working to save ourselves.

You do you. I refuse to vote for anyone to rule over me. I’m arms crossed against it all. I feel the votes don’t matter, but even if they did, I’m still not playing. I don’t want to give any illegitimate criminal ruling class a gram of credibility by participating in their system. That’s just my own preference. Everyone else can decide for themselves what to do in the end.

My point exactly, we can’t really tell who’s the guy that’s even if there’s one. We’re all just voting the best candidate according to our own preferences.
