I’ve been voting blue no matter who for 25 years and it didn’t stop this shit

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 13 points 1 day ago

40 years and it's worse.

Same.

And I'll keep voting blue no matter who.

BECAUSE LOOK AT THE ALTERNATIVE.

Same.

And I’ll hate it every time and expect nothing in return.

Serious question, then why do you keep doing it? You have to understand that constantly voting for the same shit, without doing anything to change who you're voting for or demanding anything of your leaders, was going to lead to the party becoming out of touch with your needs and wants right?

I tried voting for Kucinich, then for Dean, and then for Bernie. Twice. So I’ve tried to vote for different shit but they don’t win.

Or when they do they get a traumatic brain injury and turn MAGA.

Fuck Fetterman.

So, the electoral process has failed you every time that you've interacted with it, and you've watched as everything got worse these past few decades, but still hold faith in the process? Again, I have to wonder why? It seems like you'd be very justified in looking at the DNC as traitors, especially considering they personally gatekept some of your choices from the general election.

I don’t have any faith in the process. I just do it so I can tell liberals it doesn’t work.

Plus my mom would disown me if I didn’t vote.
