I know that you're really concerned about being stabbed with knives. But you just need to accept the Hard Truth that you not being stabbed with knives is losing political issue! Really, that's why we're losing elections. You can't have everything that you want. And you need to see where the other side is coming from...

I know that you're really concerned about being stabbed with knives. One of these candidates is implicitly okay with you being stabbed with knives, and the other wants to personally stab you with even more knives. I recognize the injustice in this and will therefore vote for neither of them! (the worse one won and now you're being stabbed with even more knives)

Who will win? (spoiler: I don't know but certainly not you because you're too busy being stabbed with knives)
