    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.
