There was an article earlier about people smoking crack if they thing Trump is up 10 points.

Well…he’s up 10 points. The Democrats need to do something fairly drastic soon if they want to win 24.

    FPTP only applies to voting itself. It’s fucking bizarre to make the analogies you’re making. They don’t work at all.

    Yeah, which means donating to election campaigns and volunteering for election campaigns, because those things effect how people vote! You just want to find reasons to feel pride and self satisfaction over doing literally nothing at all.

    You have done nothing to protect your children from fascism, but you don’t want to think about that. Instead you act like playing voteball matters. Under Biden, my State has been targeting trans children and has legalized child labor. What the fuck did my vote for Biden in 2020 do to stop Republicans? Jack shit!

    I’m not trying to bully or terrify you. I just want you to think about my kids, and what kind of world they’ll grow up in if guys like Donald fucking Trump cement their grips on power.

    I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this, but under the two party system your children are going to die no matter what. How the fuck can you look at the direction things have been going, regardless of which party is in power, and conclude “everything will be fine if that dang Cheeto doesn’t take the Whitehouse!”

    We live in a spiraling shithole and we’re all going to fucking die if things don’t radically change - and that will never happe through elections.

    Whatever. Your mind’s made up.

    For your kid’s sake, arm yourself. No matter who wins, things are going to get much worse.
