i’ve found that voting is pretty pointless. donating money is far more important. and that’s what i’m gonna be doing. i gave bernie some cash and now im gonna give yang some as well. aside from that there’s no point for me to vote. back in the day when i was more liberal i would’ve voted for obama. but i lived in washington. electoral college made my vote pointless - washington is foregone conclusion a blue state. what’s the point? voting in federal elections only matters in swing states.
by second term, i saw obama was bailing out banks and drone striking and appointing a hardline conservative to head the DEA and was no longer a fan. and fast forward to 2016 donald dump or hilary clinton? ewwww. i didn’t like either candidate why the fuck would i vote for either. with a bare minimum of research, u can see hilary clinton defended her rapist husband and tried to silence his victims, called black kids super predators, was rude and disrespectful to black protestors who were protesting her super predator comments, is a war monger, laughed about killing gadafi and destabilizing the region and essentially supporting isis, and so on and so forth. also she let benghazi and the media spent all this time downplaying it, just gross.
donald dump, he’s a lying douchebag. but you know what? he triggers SJW and shits on them and exposes them, so i like him in that aspect. his latest victory - he says - “dems want illegal immigrants? FINE SEND EM TO SANCUTARY CITIES” the hypocritical liberals are like “NONONONO NOT IN MY BACKYARD” lol!!! its similar to the SJWs in seattle who call people like me “NIMBYs” because we don’t want safe injection sites (places where people can freely shoot up heroin and get free needles - no i am not making this shit up) in our backyards. A few weeks ago, a huge SJW on my fb news feed panicked because guess what??? A JUNKIE WAS SHOOTING UP IN HIS BACKYARD. he actually called the cops on them!!! LOOOOOOOOOOL. this is the same guy condemning NIMBYs like me for being hateful nazi bigots because we want to jail homeless criminal scum
bonus seattle sjw story:
local man tired of seeing the rat infestation by the homeless tent cities, takes matter in his own hands and shoots rats. HE GETS ARRESTED. meanwhile the homeless who are trepassing, defecating in public, shooting up in public, burglarizing and assulting people get to walk free
How? Also could toy do me a favor and address the entire post. That comment makes sense in the context of the whole post but isolating it like that makes it far easier to fox news spin into whatever someone wants.
Nah I downgraded to stripper clubs w friends once in a blue moon. After a high score 40+ it felt really empty. I’m all about the cuddling. Plus with all the stings where a bunch of tech workers got pwned it made it an easy choice. Relevance…???
No clue what a fuccboi is that’s new slang and I haven’t received a satisfactory definition. I’m more of a troll. Was there a particular point u wanted to discuss or were u just trolling as well???
consider this my only response to you, as I don’t mess around with trolls. If you are indeed one as you state, I strongly encourage you to reform your ways of posting.
I was gonna LOL at you for being new to srk and talking about reforming posting style but then saw ur join date of 2000. If you’ve actually been around that long then you’d know that srk gd is a haven where people can have fun. I’ve never seen u post before tho and I’ve been posting here for almost 20 years in the same style soooooo
It’s a sad truth buddy. Us OGs had to self censor heavily while the rest have been banned. Do u live in Seattle now or in the greater Seattle area? How many needles do you see???
Also here is yet another example of sjw lunacy in Seattle. The guy is comparing the backlash to homeless tent cities - complete with public defecation, rats, assault, rape, needles, junkies, burglary, and other malfeasance - to support for Jim Crow. In other words, people who complain about Seattle becoming a shit hole are kkk Nazis. Never mind that most of the junkies in the tents are white… this is the kind of insanity I’m talking about and the author of this article represents a large portion of Seattle liberals in his thinking
Okay the whole context.
One of the factors that lead to Trump’s victory is that there a sharp decline of Democrat Voters that year and a record number of Republican voters.
Other thing is there more than just Trump and Hillary on the Ballets. You had the choice of two 3rd party candidates as well. You could of chosen a 3rd party, let them know you are unsatisfied with Republicans and Democrats. And if a 3rd party gets a total of I think 10% of the popular vote nationally, they start to receive Federal funds. The same funds the Dems and the Reps already get from the Government. It’s called Strategic voting, even if that 3rd party didn’t win the Dems and Reps realize they now got new competition and realizes they need to straighten up to get those votes.
You biggest power over a In-office Politician or a Candidate is that you are a voter. You write to your senator or representative, they pay more attention if you start your letter, your introduction with I am a voter in your state/district, if you voted for them mention that as well: they will take notice your letter more than some joe smoe. Don’t like a politician’s agenda or position, write to them as a voter and if they get enough of the same (or similar letters) they know that path is toxic to their reelection.
You want to shape a party’s platform start voting. You know whats the most underrepresented and put the least into consideration for a politician, you know why its because they don’t vote.
Why does some politicians make it harder for minorities to vote, they don’t want to represent them.
Remove them from the political process, and they aren’t represented. And it spirals from there.
Voting is how the citizens choose their own government
