“It's weird to be so obsessed with genitals, who has them, and what they do with them. It's weird to the point of fetishistic to be so concerned with people "breeding" to avoid being "replaced." It is fundamentally weird to care so much about what other people do when it doesn't affect you at all. Nobody wants to be around people like that, and we should say it.”https://defector.com/look-at-these-fucking-weirdos

What if voting wasn’t something you did to express your personal preference? What if it was something you did to protect the people you love?

I keep hearing people I know who I thought genuinely cared for the people on the ragged edges of US society saying that they’re not going to vote for Harris. I wish they’d see voting as a thing we do *for each other* instead of something that speaks to your own self-centered opinion. It’s just moral narcissism - the idea that how it makes you feel about yourself is the most important thing. It’s wildly, WILDLY selfish. And these are the same people who lecture others about privilege. Wild.

People say I shouldn’t shame others for not voting, but fuck that. We have this one lever we get to pull. This one task. If you can’t make that bare minimum requirement to participate in a democracy, I have no goddamn respect for you. You’re not more morally pure for opting out, you’re just a petulant child. Voting isn’t everything, but it’s the first thing. If you have this right that so many fought and bled for and you don’t use it, shame on you.

And if you’re so radical that you’re willing to take up arms to fight fascism, but you’re not willing to cast a vote for someone who isn’t perfect, you’re no radical, you’re just a fucking poser.

Refusing to pick a side when one of the sides is fascism is picking the fascist side.It's not brave. It's not moral. It's just surrendering in advance.

I was talking about this, but if you're able to cast a vote for Harris and against fascism and you don't, I'm talking about you, too. https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/2024/10/25/washington-post-endorsement-president/

No matter who wins this election, I can tell you this: I’m gonna remember who said it didn’t matter. I’m gonna remember who said they were both the same.

@krismicinski @ErikUden I have seen plenty of people say that. And plenty who say they want more. Both are bad.

All the fascists need to succeed is for good people to do nothing.But they'll gladly accept the help of leftists who refuse to form a coalition because they didn't like the Black lady the Democrats picked to run.

@ErikUden fascists get helped from everyone who is not actively opposing them.

@ErikUden Quite a lot of people in my sphere have told me that both candidates are the same and it doesn't matter who wins. Not bots - friends of mine. That's why I'm talking about it.

@molly0xfff Also cool how the standard is now "give all the content to the AI companies and THEN offer the opt-out to users."

Mad respect for Eugen. Imagine a world where the CEOs of social media platforms regularly stepped aside when they realized they weren't cut out for the job.https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/11/my-next-chapter-with-mastodon/

Running a community has never been easy, and even when you find someone who is good at it, it takes a toll. Nobody can do it alone, and nobody can do it forever.

I remember a moment, years ago. Jack Dorsey was still running Twitter and involved in yet another scandal about whether nazi shit was gonna be tolerated there, and he was equivocating and bullshitting about free speech or somesuch. And around the same time, someone else dropped some justification for tolerating nazi shit to Eugen, and he just said something along the lines of: no, we don't do that here.Eugen earned my respect that day.
