    Unless you mean “because they emigrate”, then they’re not that smart. By not voting, they acquiesce to whatever becomes policy. They silence their own voice. Pretty damn stupid imo

      Even if you vote you acquiesce to what’s in charge. It’s not like me voting for Biden will stop me being subject to Trump’s whims if he wins. It’s not like Scott Perry isn’t my fucking “representative.” That’s how government works: Whoever wins makes the rules regardless of how anyone voted, even if they didn’t.

        You voting for Biden helps Trump not win.

                Damn you sound like me at my job sometimes. What’s the point of it never ends? Oh right, it turns out I like to eat

                  Politics means being annoyed, angry, and depressed about things you can’t change in any meaningful way every year until you die. Or every four years if you’re lucky enough to be able to ignore it.

                  It doesn’t seem to be doing anything but I guess you’re welcome

                    Gay marriage and the ACA tend to disagree.
