    Yes, stop thinking and just follow the herd! That’s surely the solution! \s

    Thankfully I live in a state where my vote doesn’t matter at all. jfc.

    How many years can the libs keep this up?

    Reddit Lemmy users love their internet slacktivism. These mfers will type out a 10,000 word comment on a five year old post before they will vote.

        We agree that spending one’s time typing internet comments is less effective than voting.

    Non-contributing rage bait. The Democrats were wrong. The Democrats still are wrong. And the Democratic presidential candidate was infinitely better than her opposition.

    Nuance motherfucker do you speak it.

        In a two party system, especially when there’s no clear “I don’t like either” option then yes, nothing else exists. When you don’t vote you’re not saying “I don’t like either party” you’re saying “I don’t care which party wins”. If you don’t care which party wins then you’re in support of both parties.

          Ever heard of third parties? I’ve voted Green Party since I could vote. There is the Libertarian, Reform, Constitutional, and several other parties.

            Yeah, they’re the non-vote parties. FPTP voting always devolves down to 2 parties, see Duverger’s Law. Even if by some miracle a 3rd party wins (and continues winning) they will eventually kick one of the previous 2 parties out and take their place as the new party in the 2 party system. In practice if my memory doesn’t fail me voting 3rd party hasn’t mattered for over a century because the 2 main parties are so entrenched, so voting for 3rd party is more or less throwing away your vote.

      You guys deserve trump.

      Like “the democrats weren’t cool and sexy enough, and they didn’t serenade me long enough, they didn’t even have my favorite ice cream flavor”.

      This thread is full of it.

      There’s no campaign bad enough to justify electing the injecting bleach criminal.

      They just should have needed to come out, point at trump and say “if you don’t vote for me you’ll get him”, turn 180 and go to sleep. And should have won like 80-20.
