    Because the lesser evil isn’t reading Lemmy, but lots of people on Lemmy can vote? If you’re using social media to organize in a way that will have real visibility, then more power to you. But if you think memes on Lemmy are going to influence the White House, I’ve got some bad news for you.

      Lots of people on lemmy are also real people with real voices though, right?..

      I mean even a non-person bot could propagate memes on other platforms if the owners of those bots were so motivated

      I see few better ways to push for change than by agitating a bunch of people out of complicity.

        I suppose that doesn’t include the complicity of inaction in the face of fascism.
