    That’s not really how voting works though.

    An election is a poll or test or the collective will of citizens at a given point in time. Granted, in the US you have the electoral college fuckery overlaid on that but still …

    Voting Blue but complaining about them to your compatriots is not the way.

    Protesting about Gaza outside Democrat conventions in an election cycle is not the way to secure better outcome for Palestinians.

          There aren’t enough people like me to make a difference either way.

          Progressives and socialists and weirdos are woefully outnumbered in this country, as shown by literally every election in my life.

          Even if every single one voted we’d still lose and things would continue to get worse.
