    You’re free to do nothing, but smart people choose to minimize harm when there are only bad choices in front of them.

      Who said I’m “doing nothing”? Voting isn’t doing anything. Only actions outside the ballot matter.

        Voting isn’t doing anything? Did you not see what happened when Trump got to pick three Supreme Court justices? Roe is gone dude. This stuff matters.

          It really doesn’t. This is the momentum of your country either way. Or did you forget that your democrats had chances to put Supreme Court justices and they just…didn’t?

            What are you talking about? The senate has to approve them. The GOP controlled the senate. I get you don’t understand our system but before acting so smug I’d make sure I understand what happened.

            Also they’re not “my” democrats.
