    If you are in a Blue State, it’s only Blue because others voted.

    Your attitude is, “Someone else will call the fire department. I’ll stand here and watch the house burn.”

      Duh? That means the democrats don’t need my vote to win here, because others are doing so

      That means I can’t possibly be responsible for their loss if I don’t vote for them as they didn’t need me. So that would mean if they lose this state then they’ve managed to lose the people who were already going to support them, yeah?

      My attitude is “someone else has already called the fire department, were good”

      I can freely vote however I want safe in the knowledge that the registered Democrats will do their blue no matter who shit and keep the state blue. If they don’t, that’s objectively not my fault, and would be absolutely wild to see CA do THIS of all elections

      This all said to back up my original point that saying someone who doesn’t vote for Harris is de facto a Trump supporter is stupid and likely untrue

        But someone hasn’t called the fire department. The election is in November. You are going to stand around watching the fire burn assuming your neighbors will call for you.

          Sure, let’s just pretend we don’t have numbers and historic data on how the state will vote, that makes sense! You keep ignoring the whole “not in a swing state” thing because if you don’t you know your points are shit

          You are going to stand around watching the fire burn assuming your neighbors will call for you

          1. I already voted, so this “you are doing x” shit ain’t gonna work on me
          2. That is the job of the volunteer firefighters (registered Democrats), if they can’t manage that then it isn’t my fault their guy’s not motivating to them to do the thing they promised they would

            “Sure, let’s just pretend we don’t have numbers and historic data on how the state will vote”

            Translation:

            “My neighbors have always called the firefighters in the past so I’ll do nothing but watch the fire burn.”

            I already voted, so this “you are doing x” shit ain’t gonna work on me

            Then why are you arguing about not needing to vote!

            if they can’t manage

            Blaming firefighters for not being able to stop a fire when you won’t even call them. That’s a new one. I bet you blame the kids Trump raped on Epstein’s Island for not fighting back too.

              Christ you can’t even keep your own analogy straight, I told you it was bad from the start and you keep going

              Then why are you arguing about not needing to vote!

              Because I dislike the authoritarian bullshit and bad arguments you’ve been giving, and I think watching you fail is funny
