If we can't be bothered to vote in the primaries, wjy would anyone believe us that a progressive candidate would somehow lure millions more to vote?
As I know the comments will be, uhhh, fun, I've turned off reply notifications.
Not at all, I never said anything about any violence being justified. I'm saying that not participating hurts others, not just you. I don't want anyone hurt, but there are two choices in the US general election, and one is always worse than the other for everyone but the wealthy.
Getting shot or punched was a metaphor. The point being that red is bad, blue is less bad, and choosing neither directly benefits the red. So long as there are racists, bigots, and other people that just hate demographics for no reason, the world won't be a place of peace. In all of history it never has been. We can get closer to peace by voting for people that aren't pedophiles and war mongers. Not participating in that effort is a choice you can make, you're and adult, and you have enough of the facts to make a semi informed choice. Nobody can make you, we can just help educate you on the pros and cons of these choices.
