    If you get the runs when dying of thirst it will kill you as sure as poison, you nit.

    You’ve literally made my point for me.

      Curious about this, maybe you can help me:

      What’s your theory for why the voting ratio of this post is 20:1 in favor of “voting makes sense in this election”, and the ratio of the comments is like 1:1? Or do you just not think that’s odd?

      I have my theory, but I’m curious what yours is.

        Why does it matter to me? I’ve made it clear that popular opinion no longer influences me because I sacrifice every voting round to elect the Neoliberal option that keeps the devil at bay. I’m not asking even for my candidate to win, but for concessions that matter to the lowest earners in America.

        Withholding votes has long been a clear declaration that those looking to build a bloc need to do more than point at the other team and say: “You’re electing that.”

        It’s not enough any more. I can’t keep voting your way because you need me to so absolutely desperately that you’re willing to do everything except give me what I’m asking for.

        Why do you keep thinking that you can just bully me into voting your way?
