FAQ

Q: why not organize and stop treating the bus as a legitimate entity? why aren’t you working to stop the bus?

A: do both. cut the fuel line. break windows. put oatmeal in the gas tank. but maybe your efforts don’t succeed this election cycle. and if so don’t fucking throw away your vote if it can help your neighbors fucking survive. “harm reduction” is not a political strategy for action. it is a last minute, end of the line decision to save lives, after all other resources have been exhausted.

so don’t vote for fascist politicians then.

genuinely what is your goal for this conversation? that i tell people it’s in their and their loved ones’ best interest to sit this election out?

i for real don’t get the motive of this talking point except to sow complacency, and complacency has given life to fascism pretty darn effectively in recent history.

my goal is that you would stop misinforming people about what harm reduction is.
