Actions do really hit harder than words @_@

Sure, here are some examples:

As you may imagine, they aren't finding their way to exist easy. But they sure are having success in learning how to create a horizontal society.

Yeah, is a bad deal.

But that's not the point, the point of this approach is that like in cooperatives, there are minimum productivity goals and many roles to play, and so on. Obviously like you point out, no one is that stupid.

Now, consider the needs of people who are old or need help. Like helping your old man, I'm sure you don't mind getting more apples. I wouldn't. Like you, I would get angry if I'm the only useful one hahaha, but that what productivity and organization is for. No one lives in a bubble.

Now... What you said, I've seen it happen in capitalism. Not in small businesses, normally the owner is in the store too. I mean when we talk about the big bucks like a better example. They expect you to handle of those apples, and ain't offering you a comfy home neither.

You get it.

Is just a way to navigate the corporate landscape. Most of that is bullshit, just a suit, a happy face and some specific knowledge that helps you get an edge and you are done baby. If you've got a portfolio, even better.

I've got so many freelance jobs in my past this way. It is terrible, I agree. But most recruiters only care if the job is done, no matter who does it.

Then go vote by all means.

Just be clear about what you want to achieve. As far as I know, no matter who gets to the white house, Cop City in Atlanta is getting built, and USA alignment with Israel and its many interventions in the rest of the world hasn't changed in decades. No matter who is the president.

If something is happening to change, it is thanks to people with conscience who organize to protest and riot. Hence, not asking for the politician to change is making things change.

In South America, there are many conversations about this topic, and as far as I've reflected, I don't want Trump to get to the White House. But I'd rather keep working through direct action to make my community goals become reality, and many times, that happens by not asking but doing.

My goal is not for you to vote or not vote. It is to be reasonable on what you can achieve via voting and what requires more than that.

I think there is no reason to not lie at your resume while you are confident you can do the task. Most jobs out there are pretty BS anyway.

While I hope more people can bring their point of view to assist you in your decision-making, I will put my grain of salt. In times like these, I confess I choose anarchy, and a thinker of this position that covers the topic you are talking about is Enrico Malatesta in his text At The Café, which is free for everyone to read at The Anarchist Library.

The way I see it, like many anarchists, is that electoralism is part of the racket. But I understand why some people may see it as an essential part of politics. I'd rather keep working on those grassroots and direct democracy or consensus organizations that require our daily efforts than try to see who we'll put in the decision-making seat and keep taking more power to the people.
