If I don’t agree with either candidate, I’m not voting for them, simple as that. I don’t care what someone else thinks about my choice, I’m done compromising on my beliefs for old men who can’t step aside.
Because this is a discussion about the issue of not voting? Discussion is something that this website needs more of so I try to comment on articles if I have an opinion. I don’t care if you discount my opinion, I’m just not going to be shamed because of it.
You’re essentially praying to Biden or Trump that they hear you’re dissatisfied with them. You can have your opinion and the strong belief that you’re personally taking a stand, but its such a functionally useless empty gesture.
So is voting blue in a historically red dominated state…
Again, I don’t really care how meaningful you think your vote for Biden is. It means more to me right now to not cast a vote than it would to choose the lesser of two evils. I’m glad you feel the way you do about this election, but I don’t, and I’m not going to cast a vote just I can feel “useful”.
Um yeah, pretty much this. At the end of the day, isn’t that kind of all that matters? Be true to yourself and all that? Isn’t that the same thing you’re doing with your vote?
“Isn’t voting the same as not voting?” asks the spoiled brat who takes democracy completely for granted. You are subject to political outcomes of democracy whether you like it or not. Voting isn’t that hard. Therefore not voting is irrational.
I’ll be at the polls to vote local/state. I’ll probably even vote third party because at a core level I believe in the act of voting, just not for these two jabronis.
Stop letting them tell you this is the best we can do. We CAN do better, but people in power have incentive to keep it this way for a reason.

This is equivalent to announcing you want us to completely discount your opinion. So why even mention it at all?

Cool. Everyone will ignore you but hey at least you’re self-satisfied with your own internal logic.
