“Leftists” in my mentions saying they couldn’t be brought to vote for Kamala Harris: Trump’s police aren’t going to ask about this when they haul you off.

They aren’t going to ask if you voted for him as a “message” to Democrats. They aren’t going to ask if you voted for Jill Stein. And if you’re cool with going, you have a martyrdom obsession that you can leave everyone else out of.

They won’t care if you are brown or white or Black and you voted on “the economy.” Everyone dies the same.

@TonyStark 🎯 Spot on!! I hate to sound crass, but I have zero fucks to give about them anymore! The level of selfishness is disgusting! I'll be watching and waving bye when they are detained! I'm older, established and white. I have emailed, protested, donated, called, marched, fought for Dems and the Left ish causes since I'm 18. Now 57. I stopped all my auto donations except for planned parenthood! Fuck it all! I'm looking out for myself and my Daughter now!

@otownKim I had a similar conversation with another person this afternoon.

I’m supposed to care about everyone but they care about themselves only? The level of selfishness and arrogance is unreal. Not getting one ounce of anything out of me now.

Kills me when I’ve been to so many protests and tolerated physical consequences and they can’t take 15 seconds to fill out a ballot. It’s the lowest effort thing you can do with the most effect. FFS.

@TonyStark @otownKim
I think we should try to make not voting more socially unacceptable!

Did you know that Joe Biden is the only person to win the presidency since at least 1978 who managed to get a higher number of votes than the number of nonvoters?

@GreenFire The first step to increasing voter turn out will be to have choices that don't both suck. Implementing a system where someone other than the Democrat or Republican has a chance would be a good start.

@antares
The choice on the ballot this year was democracy versus fascism. The fact that you say that there weren't good choices on the ballot says more about you than Kamala Harris or me.

@GreenFire based on the chart you posted 70% of Americans don't believe you, and I bet there were a bunch like me who voted for Harris without believing she was a good candidate, just the lesser of two evils.
