    We literally got two corrupt white men sexual abusers to choose from, and they both part of the establishment and don't want to make real changes that help niggas on the bottom like Bernie did, but if you say "Nah im good" then you're the a******

    Don't see the issue. If they didn't earn your support then they don't get your vote.

    Ur completely right

  • May 11, 2020

    If none of the candidates align with your values, don't vote. Voting would only support the flawed system.

    i dunno in general but i think in regards to the recent fracturing of left ppl, those who see getting trump out of office as being the biggest priority think that the unsatisfied-and-therefore-nonvoting segment of the left is "wrong" because their nonvoting attitudes won't help get rid of trump, which is pretty much all the majority of the biden-supporting left is trying to do. it's pretty fake in that i don't personally know anyone my age, and only a handful of people older, who truly support biden for president based on their perception of biden's merits. most biden-supporting left i speak to just want anyone-but-trump, really.

    my opinion is that i see where the anyone-but-trump people are coming from, and given that my state may go blue instead of red for the first time in a while, i'll be voting based on general party allegiance even though i think handing the presidency to biden is dumb. if you're in a state that's probably not gonna deviate significantly from how it normally votes, then i'd say you should vote for whomever you want, or no one, if you really think that your vote is an expression of someone's meeting your expectations. i don't think that's how votes work. i think that's ideally how votes should work, but i don't think that's how they do in reality.

    It’s not wrong to not vote, it’s just wrong to question the current system. It really makes 0 difference if you or a 1,000,000 people vote.

    It sucks because the left is almost as divided as R vs D. So really, you got the blue no matter who hating on those who think Biden sham'd his way to the top, and vice versa.

    Y’all really think all the richies in office just happen to disagree on every thing that lower-middle class people want and agree on everything richies want? Party politics is a show to cover up that they’ll never do anything for you, and they’ll take whatever they want.

  • May 11, 2020

    Its your decision but if you don't vote don't complain about the outcome.

    It's most important at the local level, when you vote for president everything down the ballot is just as important.

    Nah, what I'm saying is even if someone chooses not to vote, they're still effected by what the president does, so they can still complain just like everyone else.

  • May 11, 2020

    it's just that some people won't even vote IF there is a candidate for them because they're too lazy or bad at planning. i guess if none of the local legislation matters to you (doubtful) then don't vote but i can make a change in my community so i'll always vote. they throw marijuana laws onto the presidential ballot in my area and because of my fellow citizens voting, i now have a medical card and am smoking legally for the first time in my life. just leave the president part blank if you have to

    my grandpa was a felon after he came back home from the vietnam war (based on a nonviolent d*** offense) and he isn't allowed to vote. being a veteran, he has made it clear that i'd be a moron to not use the right that some people would actually kill for

  • May 11, 2020

    people have the right to intentionally choose to not vote and, in my opinion, thus not support this buffoonery we have going on as an organizational system for our society

    did not vote in 2016

    thats exactly why you need to vote

  • May 11, 2020

    Most important election in your lifetimes coming up. One side is objectively wrong and it should be explicit which. Your vote holds weight and if ever there was a time to use it its now.

  • May 11, 2020

    you have to be ridiculously privileged to not want to vote
