    Remember kids! You can’t vote because kids can’t vote! But once you are of age, you will get to save democracy every time you vote by saying yes to the lesser of to evils. The system is perfect and there is no reason to voice any discontent.

      For starters…. It’s implied that this is said to kids as a point that WHEN THEY GROW UP…

      I really didn’t think it was necessary to have to spell this out, but this is where we are I guess.

      you will get to save democracy every time you vote by saying yes to the lesser of to evils

      Yes. That how this works. You should understand that you will NEVER get a perfect candidate in an election. That’s politics. Checks and balances. It’s ALWAYS been this way. Everyone votes for the one they like better, with the complete understanding that their candidate is going to have to make tough decisions/sacrifices and do things they disagree with. You want to vote for YOU in an election? Run for President. See how easy it is for yourself to be perfect.

      Again… THAT’S how this works.

      You are free to think that voting for anything less than perfection is stupid, and even one else is free to call you out on the ignorance of this line of thinking.

        AND if you continue to grow and understand that a vote for noncommited during a primary scares you, there is something seriously wrong. Noncommited is saying something here and at an appropriate time. That’s how that works, jack.

          If you think I’m talking about people voting in the primary- you need to take a course in reading comprehension.

              Did I say anything about the primaries?

              In case you’re not aware, there’s a campaign of propaganda spreading here where people are asking for everyone to NOT vote in November. I’m talking about THEM.

              If this bothers you, you’re one of them.

                What does what you have to do with the meme? There are campaigns of propaganda out there that say the economy is great, and that you should not question or protest. I’m talking about them.

                If that bothers you, you’re one of them.

                  ROFL… I’m going to end this pointless nonsense here.

                  You’ve nothing worth reading in my opinion, so I’m going to go ahead and block you now.
