Found the loser that doesn't grasp how important democracy is or that people DIE for it so that others that come after them can benefit from it.

    I'm here, aren't I? Of course I'm way more plugged in and consume far more news than the average person. I vote, all the time. I encourage people I know and meet IRL to vote. Of course the US would be a better place if everyone were a bit more engaged. With each other, the world around them, politics, and the news.

    But I get pissed off when people don't seem to grasp that not everyone thinks like they do and they never will. When people are disgusted that others act differently than they do... I hope you can see why I would have a problem with that.

    And when I find someone so willing to completely disappear up their own asshole about CIVIC DUTY and a bunch of people deaf for centuries... Just shut the fuck up already. Nobody cares except for the people that already think exactly like you do.

    Lol.

    Kiddo. We aren't talking about having differing opinions about taxes or regulations or policy of any kind.

    These are fucking dipshits that fail their CIVIC DUTY to vote in a democracy, particularly WHEN THAT DEMOCRACY IS BEING THREATENED.

    Are you still gonna be treating these fucking clowns gently when your democracy is FUCKING GONE because they couldn't be bothered to uphold their responsibility? Pick up a history book and find out how shitty that situation would be if it came to pass.

    You seem to not understand the situation we are currently in or that not voting has nothing to do with "differing opinions". I suggest you do whatever is necessary to get your head out of your own asshole. No one should be kind to non-voters EVER, but especially not now. And no one with a brain would be framing their FAILURE as a "differing opinion".
