"waaaah, the people around me vote in their own self interest and it makes me feel unimportant! wahhhh"
That's you.
How other people vote is their business. That's democracy. You gotta be a real self righteous piece of shit to believe they should vote how you tell them to. Trumpesque, even.
I the US 2024 presidential election, there was two names on the ballot for candidates likely to win:
A) Person that wanted to tax billionaires B) Person with 34 felonies for trying to steal a previous presidential election.
Two choice for a vote. B was picked because TV told everyone that was the smart thing to do, while actual smart people were ignored as too woke.
So now it's very all of our fucking business that TV got people to vote B.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. If you were stupid enough to vote B, or not vote at all when B was on the ballot, then don't be surprised and sad that said action have now enabled the disappearance of people to prisons with no due process.
The only thing Trumpesque is whining like a bitch now that there's consequences to B winning.
The choices were:
A) Brown Lady B) Constitutional seppuku
So no one here is telling you how to vote - but most here understood what the consequences of voting B would be.
Did you?
Or are you just now mad to find out crime grandpa is indeed gonna crime? Because no one is going to have sympathy for that level of ignorance. Best you can hope for is a 'Let's go Brandon" style of whining you could adopt and use to bitch more about the outcome of the election with.
You must have read what I wrote in order to know you don't care about it enough to say anything. Which no offense, if you also did the same during the last election, explains why you're so defensive. Because you can run away from my opinion, but you can't run away from the results of this election. No matter how much you complain about it.
Yes. Telling people how to vote sounds exactly like something Trump would do. He'd probably get super mad about it, throw a tantrum, and lash out with insults too.
Don't vote for fascists, stupid.
Am I doing it right?
