    I am not fine with it just because I refuse to play the silly game of republican vs democrat. You really overestimate your intelligence to think you know me like that.

      You have a choice at the polls. You can scream into the void, where nobody hears you and you have no effect on the election’s outcome, or you can grit your teeth and vote for the candidate who isn’t a fascist, and you opt to scream into the void. It’s hard to believe you aren’t fine with fascism when you put your own feeling of moral superiority above the actual real world consequences of allowing a fascist to win.

      I mean sure, women are having their rights violated in many states now, and even those who don’t get abortions have to endure an investigation into their womb when they have a miscarriage, but at least you didn’t vote for some democrat in 2016, right?

        I dont need you to believe anything. But I’d rather shoot myself than vote for someone I dont believe in. Having to vote for the lesser evil candidate is not democracy

          Yup. And because of that, people are actually suffering in real life.

          You don’t have to vote for the lesser evil candidate. But much like that story from the Witcher, other people often pay the price for you keeping your hands clean.

            People will always suffer. My vote wont change that. I can depend on people who vote democrat to vote for the democrats. I know that without a doubt, leftism is the future of america and regardless of who I vote for, that wont change.

              Couldn’t rely on them back in 2016. The next few generations who are going to have to live with Trump’s supreme court picks really could have used our help, but we were too idealistic. “People will always suffer” is such an awful way to justify inaction, and it certainly makes it sound like you are fine with it.
