How is voting only for people you actually want running the country in any way symbolic? Versus just always voting for a color. This is possibly the most ridiculous thing you’ve said to me in the last few weeks.
Oh yes I understand how you think voting works. You go in and pull the lever for whoever the party tells you or you get the stick again. But that’s not a democracy. In a democracy the party bends to the will of the people. Not the people to the party. Or else the Party gets the stick again.
I never said I’m not voting. I said I’m not voting for Biden. And being forced to vote for someone still isn’t a democracy, no matter how much make up you put on it.
No. In no world is not voting for someone somehow a vote. You cannot coerce votes and still call it a democracy. The entire point is freedom to vote for your choice.
Your votes do decide. The primaries selected Joe Biden in 2020, and this general election is going to be 51:49 in Trumps favor based on polls. We have a choice.
The part where Representative Democracy involves Voting to elect a leader, not just voting as a symbolic gesture.

Lmao. Real democracy is a temper tantrum? Are you sure you aren’t trying to stooge for an oligarchy?

Because then you’re voting for an outcome that won’t exist, or even no outcome at all, and meanwhile somebody far worse gets elected instead.

Not with that attitude. According to you it’s already decided.
Oh wow you really hit me with the “nuh uh.”
