the worst dudes online are the guys who are like “the time for electoral politics is over, it’s time for guillotines.” yeah bud i’m sure you’ll stop posting and get the ball rolling on the guillotines any minute now.
this basically serves the same purpose as QAnon shit on the right. it projects itself as an aggressive form of political engagement, but it’s really just a retreat into fantasy and nihilism
"Voting is useless! MY way is better!"
"What's your way?"
"HOW DARE YOU ASK ME QUESTIONS, YOU OPPRESSIVE PERSON WHO EXISTS IN A REPUGNANT MORAL VACCUUM, GET IN THE SEA"
"well, whatever ... do the different political thing yourself, then"
"that's ableist"
