I'm compelled this afternoon to shout into the void, to whomever may hear it: voting doesn't come close to the top of the list of things needed to fight against fascism and oligarchy. It's doubtful it would even break the top 10.
But yes, please do vote. Just recognize voting is a bare minimum.
Also, haranguing me to vote in some particular way is annoying. (I think many others agree.) Just know I will never harangue you to vote for anyone.
And now, I nap. 😀
