Well there ya go….two pairs of pants at the pants store: polite fascism or rude facism from your pov. Looks like you know which pair you’d rather leave wearing. Hope my comment helped!

There’s nothing deep to infer here, It’s just a counting game through a gerrymandered filter. Whether either one of us like it or not, it’s the existing system. If you truly dont have a preference of the two candidates we will be given, then your lack of vote takes away nothing. The source article here is about people who might vote for Biden being encouraged to not vote in protest. I’d presume these people weren’t voting for the other guy, so removing those votes will give him the advantage. Whether that’s your goal or not, I don’t know.

Not necessarily, it’s just important to remember that a “not vote” for one is effectively a vote for the other when we protest….follow where the roads you build lead to and all that. Until we have more than red v blue in our general, this will be true.

Persistence of opinion and breeding apathy does exist. Friendly or unfriendly…I think the point stands either way. Everyone still leaves with pants on whether they pick them or not.

Good time to remind your friendly neighborhood idealist that there are only two pair of pants at the pants store
