    Your logic is irrelevant

    To you.

    But I get to vote for who I want. Even if it’s not who you like.

    Welcome to democracy.

    I, and several of my friends, are voting for Jill Stein in this year’s election.

    I don’t care if you disagree. It’s my right.

      Yes, it is absolutely your right. Just like if you decided to rip your ballot up into tiny pieces. That would also be your right.

      I guess exercising your right is more important to you than defending democracy.

        Yes, that would be my right. But I’m not doing that. I’m exercising my right to vote for who I want to vote for.

        I guess exercising your right is more important to you than defending democracy.

        Do you hear yourself tho? You are trying to bully me into voting for who YOU want to win.

        I AM defending and practicing democracy; I’m voting for who I want to win.

        Democracy is voting for who you want to win. Even if it’s republican. Even if it’s democrat. Even if it’s 3rd party.

        That’s democracy.

        You talk about defending democracy, but right now you are being against it by trying to bully me into voting for your candidate.

        You really want me to vote democrat? Well, as soon as there is a democrat I want to vote for, I will.

        I’m actually independent. I don’t vote just out of party loyalty.

        That’s fucking democracy, bub. You seem to be against democracy if it involves people not voting the way YOU want them to vote.

        Think about that.

          Calling me a bully for your insecurity is trolling. Blocked.

          Maybe your “friends” will see reason even if you don’t.

            How am I insecure?!

            I am voting for who I want to, even tho you were pressuring me and trying to make me feel guilty. Which IS bullying by the way.

            That’s not insecure, friend. And that’s not trolling.

            That’s me standing up for myself. Proudly.

            Awww, and I see you put friends in quotes. So cute. Let me guess; you’re implying I don’t have any real friends because I’m voting 3rd party. Right?!

            Feel free to keep “blocking” people who don’t agree with you.

            And besides, if my and my “friends” matter so little, then you have nothing to worry about in the election, right?!
