i didnt say it was a waste of time. i got a vote and plan to use it no matter how fruitless it is. i want to resist. i think voting is still important, even in this corrupted and limited form. i want to participate in democracy and see it as an important part in society. i like to discuss elections and politics. and im not trying to attack anyone here, we've all known each others for years. and im not meaning to rain on peoples parade. just trying to run an honest discussion over the candidates in a non emotional way.

im not trying to come off as holier than thou. just saying how i would vote, which is always gonna be with the candidates that mostly align with my ideals. i dont know why anyone would ever not vote in that way? win or lose i will take an L before i vote for kamala or trump. i dont agree with voting for a candidate just because they got a better shot at winning. its really that simple. i care. i live in this country, i got plenty of skin in the game. i want a better future just like anyone. i just dont think that a better future is gonna be achieved by voting blue.

the candidate wins, but they will back the interests of their corporate donors. the country is in much worse shape now than it was even just 4 years ago. not just the country, but globally the situation is a disaster. but yes keep voting for the people that are propped up by corporations and other interests because they can pay some lip service and never deliver.

vote for a candidate that supports your policy. 3rd party will lose, but the system is kept afloat by the legitimacy people perceive it has. fight the system. lets say the 3rd party candidate wins, voting is still just a small part of the fight. one person wont change anything. support causes you believe in, like the student protests or other independent voices. join a socialist organization. make alliances with those who struggle on a global scale. donate to organizations that are dedicated to the fight.

trump aint my candidate and im not voting for him. as far as speaking goes, kamala is boring and cringe. theres a reason why she failed miserably in her previous attempts at presidency and why she's one of the least popular vp. her dmc speeches are always about stopping trump, same as bidens and hillarys speeches or everybody's elses speeches. vote for me or you get spooky man. trump does the same thing too, vote for me or spooky dems gonna turn america into communist lgbt utopia. they got their own talking points that pander to their own demographics. his speech ability is more entertaining than kamala, just based on how absurd everything he says is. like oh, hes talking about immigrants again. but ask me who i rather listen to? i shoot myself. i've always been a policy guy. vote for the candidate that more closely aligns to what i believe. vote for kamala and what you get out of it? a country still in decline in most metrics, except for military,. a trump presidency wont do anything to stop the decline either, might even speed up said collapse.
