No I am very affected by it, please do not assume. I have never chastised you. Every single time I have talked kindly and merely pointed out some moral fallacies in your argument.
Unfortunately not voting for them doesn't teach them anything we learned that in 2016, the DNC still holds most of the same positions, abstaining just does not work with the current voting structure.
The only thing we got in return was 4 years of environmental deregulation, deregulation of employment protections, deregulation of election protections and so much more.
We are at a pivotal point in our planet's history where if we don't stop the excess carbon being put in the atmosphere there won't be anyone left to save. I know Biden hasn't taken as much action on this as everyone would like but he's taking a heck of a lot more than Trump ever will.
So even if your long-term goal was achieved by putting pressure here and not voting which I'm can assure you given past circumstance it won't, the irreparable damage to the planet and our country can't simply be undone if your goal is achieved.
However Congress is not in such a lofty position and much easier to pressure so I urge you to pressure them instead. As they have the means to make an actual difference.
Yeah you absolutely can but that will whether you intend to or not give power to the other party. Which if your goal is to assuage your moral complicitency then I think you need to rethink your end result.
Unfortunately, if you view a vote as being complicit you're complicit no matter what.
Because with the two party bias there are only two people capable of being in that office and not voting for either of them is still a vote in and of itself.
To be clear I don't care who you vote for but you need to accept the reality that you are choosing one of the two whether you mean to or not.
That's why Congress is the only realistic way we can pressure our political system to stop what's currently going on. The government doesn't stop at the president and plenty of our Congress supports it too which is what allows it to be the way it is.
Biden should be acting on the genocide but he isn't and neither will Trump. The only two people capable of being in office in the next 4 years.
So pressure Congress, protest and do everything you can but in the meantime those two are nothing alike on most other issues and being a single issue voter has never made the system better.
I mean that's the problem with corporations too except when they're publicly traded you also have to contend with fiduciary obligation making sure they always design for the minimum viable product.
Look no further than our Telecom industry to see how that works out.
It really doesn't seem like an available labor shortage.
From my observations in Newfoundland it's a combination of the most profitable product being huge single family homes and outdated (and car-centric) zoning policy that makes it difficult to construct anything else even if it was profitable.
Our issue is there's no incentive to construct affordable housing and because of years of lobbying by the automotive industry they have to be extremely low density to accommodate the large front lawns, driveways and streetside parking required for car centric living. All of this adds additional cost.
I think step one would be to fix our zoning policy and step two would be to incentivize construction of low margin high density housing. This isn't to say that single family homes should go away just the they shouldn't be the only option.
If you have a pixel 8 I actually had to bring mine back because the modem would regularly just fail to send text messages or failed to do the proper handshake for a data connection
