    your ruination of everyone else’s attempt to improve our daily lives and those around us

    The absolute anger at people who didn’t vote for the shitty guy instead of those who did is goddamn sad. To blame third party voters at all for 2016 is heavy copium of some seriously pathetic levels

    Hope that helps you make a better comment next time.

    and so smugly full of themselves in a weirdly threatening way, because voting only counts if you vote exactly how they want you to

      I disagree that it’s “goddamn sad” when people get mad about others refusing to mitigate harm through votes, and cause irreparable damage instead. Loads of people have been using votes as a way to mitigate harm for decades now. They don’t have the luxury to do otherwise. What makes you so special? Why are you above reproach?

      I think it makes sense to be mad about that. It’s awful to see a chance to prevent harm and refuse to. I won’t pretend it’s okay just because you think you can chunk up my post to dunk on select blurbs from it.

      I do think they can make a better effort in their posts. I think you can, too.
