Thankfully we only live four to eight years at a time so I have no idea what you're talking about. This problem will go away completely if we elect John democrat.

Unjerk: voting for harm reduction and local elections is important but don't stop there. Join a mutual aid group, attend local meetings if you can and care for your neighbors.

    Yeah I think that's what makes people so annoyed about the energy put towards voting. Like I don't care if you vote. I'm not gonna. But do whatever. But I wish like 25% of the energy people put toward voting also went towards any of that other stuff. So it does annoy me a bit seeing all the vote blue no matter who stuff. Because I know they're gonna go vote and pat themselves on the back and call it a day the vast majority of the time.
