    Voting is not a medium for self-expression, or at least not a good one. It’s a tool to affect outcomes. People get angry about voting for harm reduction, but choosing to not even do that much just makes everything worse.

        Self expression is pasting someone else’s name all over everything you own?

          part of the GOP indoctrination is the mindset “you’re not a true american if you’re not shoving the party’s ideology down everyone’s throat”

            I hate these groups where they have been conditioned to believe you hate America if you’re not sporting at least 1 flag on your current clothing, a flag on your front porch and some form ideological decal on your vehicle.

        Exactly. In most cultures, keeping who you’re voting for secret, unless specifically advocating for issues or having a discussion about the candidates themselves, is the social norm.
