    You live in make believe world where you think your ideas change reality. Tell me how abstaining and allowing Trump to get elected, makes your life better? Fuck all the other people you’re fucking over, literally killing, in some cases. YOU. WHAT DO YOU GAIN FROM A TRUMP PRESIDENCY IN JAN?

      abstaining from voting for genocidal geriatrics is doing the right thing. it’s an end in itself.

        So the 66% of the population who don’t vote for no particular reason at all are, “doing the right thing.”

            It’s functionally the same. All you’ve done is exclude yourself from the system just like what the majority of people do every cycle.

              that’s a consequentialist view of ethics, and one to which i don’t subscribe

                  nonconsequentialist ethics are strongly preferred by professional philosophers, so someone here might be ignorant, but it’s not me.

            No it isn’t. You’re not standing out or standing up. Nobody knows the difference why you stayed home and let Trump get elected.

                And don’t affect change. You might as well never have been born, as far as your impact. So it sounds like this is actually only about your moral high ground. That’s cool. Means nothing when Trump is president. Brilliant plan.

              @mods this guy has told me to “shut the fuck up” multiple times, called me a “bastard” and here they are calling me a “terrorist”. Am I allowed to respond in kind or does this kind of behavior eventually result in a ban?
