In order for politics to align towards your values you have to vote for the candidate closest to them, which forces the losing parties to get closer or die, which pushes the winning party to move towards you.

If you throw away or don't vote none of that happens because you have no impact.

I'm with you and all, but shouldn't we wait before considering it a victory?

Plenty of racists and sexists out there who won't say a word about Harris publicly but will vote for Trump the second they enter the booth no matter what.

Sounds like a wild judgement of another person who you know nothing about.

Agreed completely, the fact that some continue to swim in that cess pool confuses me

When he was tweeting for his followers to amass and how it was going to get "wild" (from memory I think that's what he said) on January 6th long in advance I was freaked out but everyone said that was not a big deal.

I still doubt anyone will see this as a big deal the second time :/

"the same way I'm against carbs" is instantly now going to be one of my commonly used phrases.

If it's concrete evidence then that makes the size of the stones less impressive because they could just add water and make them on site.

I'll add another:

He does it, not pretends someone else is requiring he do it

Forget legal recourse (assuming this post is true at face value which is a huge assumption I know) but if a corporation is trying to get out of ending a human life in such an obviously unjust way, we as a society should be burning them to the ground.

But at the same time, who would throw away their life (being jailed) in order to do that, because citizens are definitely not protected in the same way, so this will just keep on happening. (Assuming this case is real, but there are other equally abhorrent examples of corporations being excused of consequences for ending human life for the sake of making money)

Yeah but they get away with it because their audience only cares/is fed the stuff they agree with

Trump said the government should be allowed to take people's guns without due process (just breaking two constitutional amendments, NBD) and Republicans just had to wait a couple days and their voters forgot about it
