I’m f****** sick of hearing people talk about their strategies for voting the way that they do. F****** sick of it. That’s not what democracy is about. You look up how the candidates stand on the issues that you care about and then you vote for the candidates that reflect your values. That’s it! Doing anything else is just f****** things up even more. The truth is staring you in the face but you don’t even see it. When Donald Trump gets reelected you’ll get another chance to learn a lesson.

Yes, it might seem obvious that Uncle Joe Biden is already our next anointed one and you can check out of this mess and go to bed already.
But by delegating actual, deliberate thought and action to these stunningly moronic poll-jockeys you are abdicating your right and abandoning your responsibility as a being who is consuming air and other shared resources that could possibly be better utilized elsewhere…. 🙂 But maybe you could decide to do it differently this time (yeah!) and research what is important to you (heck yeah!), figure out which candidate best fits that profile (holy guacamole, yeah!), and then cast your one, single, solitary vote (BOOM).
That would feel very rewarding, wouldn’t it??? 🙂💜
This is one of my Diigo outliners on a particular subject.

If a country were truly a democracy then voting day would be a national holiday. It would be a sanctified occasion for sure. To do otherwise would be like being a Christian and not observing Christmas or Easter. 🙂
So let’s just make up our minds and decide if we want to be a democracy or if we do not want to be a democracy. If we’re going to do it let’s do it well, go all in for God’s sake! Otherwise just stop pretending and do something else.
