Comment on Why are public school teachers so underpaid in the US?
Jack@lemmy.ca 1 hour agoI’m not convinced that voting for genocide and mass extinction is OK, and I’ve looked at arguments in favor of them like the lesser-evil. I may be too stupid to understand the arguments in favor of them, but I don’t think I’m being a perfectionist because I actually disagree with many things in Green and socialist platforms - but they’re not things that cross the line for me.

You are. It’s that simple.
Frederick Douglas worked for Lincoln knowing that Lincoln wasn’t planning on ending slavery. Douglas figured it was better to win with Lincoln and be at the table than to lose and have no say whatever.
Unless you can prove you are smarter or more moral than Douglas, you should follow his lead.
