Nothing I said assumed you were American.

I beg to differ. Your last paragraph especially.

Your philosophy on voting led to Americans not voting and the situation they face right now

[Citation needed]

Furthermore, no one here believes you give half a shit about direct action and organising

Good thing I don’t depend on what strangers on the internet believe of me.

because if you can’t even motivate yourself to get off the couch and write on a piece of paper once every 3-4 years then there’s no way you’re doing anything meaningful the rest of the time besides spreading apathy on online echo chambers.

Nothing I said suggests assumed I didn’t vote.

Also: how does that make sense? I claim that voting is neither necessary nor sufficient for progressive change and you immediately jump to the conclusion that I don’t vote and therefore I can’t be organizing, because voting is somehow important again and I don’t do it, so I can’t be organizing?

That’s like me saying “watching sports won’t make you healthy. Exercise does.” and you claim that I don’t watch sports and since I’m so lazy that I supposedly don’t watch sports, I can’t be exercising.
