Don't Vote

in anarchy •  6 years ago 

Metaphors can only go so far. Voting is exactly what legitimises the existence of our mental prisons . In our case the source of the authority and the reason the prison is able to exist without walls is our collective belief in the legitimacy of it. For many people voting is directly the result of that belief in the need for themselves to be ruled and the voting system itself legitimises our subservience to violent authority

When I vote, if I vote, my mind is not in a prison. While I'm in this actual prison of debt, I understand the person who goes to vote against the nutcase Socialist to keep their prison less shitty.
