sorry for the typo

alt text: a 4 panel comic where character A says “if you don’t want biden to win, you must support trump” character 2 says “i don’t accept moral responsibility for the corporate owned two party system” the comic ends with character 1 growing angry at this response and calling character 2 a fascist.

    for the record, i do believe in voting. i dont believe that an individual vote matters, and i dont believe the will of the public is the deciding factor in policymaking. at the very least i believe in federal voting as harm reduction for the time being, but i will not pretend a democrat in office stops innocent lives or our liberties being taken from us.

      The problem is that there are ~150 million individual voters. So, every one matters. Even more so when you consider how states divvy up districts. In many previous elections, entire states’ outcomes were decided by handfuls of votes.

      If voting didn’t matter, Republicans wouldn’t try so hard to stop people from doing it.
