There are photos of what the US looked like before environmental regulation. It was not pretty

Look, I’m not a protest nonvoter but this line does a lot more harm than good. You get to feel smug but all you’re doing is alienating the people who voted against this despite having to vote against their conscience to do so.
I feel ideologically aligned with people who couldn’t stomach voting for either party, because despite all the stupid mockery both sides are bad. The Republicans are actively evil and the Democrats are knowingly complicit. It’s not equally bad, but it’s all bad. Every smug comment like yours chips away at my desire to hold my nose and vote for centrist neoliberals against my own interests.
How about instead, for a change, we blame the people who voted in loser candidates like Hillary and Biden? 1/3 is a failing grade, and we’re all paying for it because of Hillary’s pied piper. Yet people like you continue to blame the people who didn’t like a bad candidate.
I’ll point you to the article.
Nope.
Gotcha, so complete dismissal. You know that just proves my point, right? Stop blaming a hypothetical nonvoter for the sins of the Democratic party. If you need to blame voters, blame the ones who backed the wrong horse.
I am.
Who did you vote for in the 2016, 2020, and 2024 primaries?
Allow me to amend my statement: I am. Those who protest non voted.
Allow me to ask again: who did you vote for in the last 3 presidential primaries?
Well good news for you, you probably won’t get to vote again! I bet that gives you the fuzzies
And what exactly makes you think that? I’m royally pissed because I’ve done everything to stop this and yet centrists can’t stop blaming everyone but themselves for the problems they caused. Take some goddamn responsibility.
