You know, 18-24 year olds are the least likely to vote.

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL things unholy, prove me wrong…

      While you still have a choice, while voting still determines who sits that position, yes, you should.

      Because body autonomy for women is more important than your petty bullshit.

      If Trump is elected, women will die.

        RvW was lost under a Democrat, a party that promised for decades to do something, then did nothing. Democrats are equally to blame for women being denied rights

          Bullshit. It was a Supreme Court decision. 6/9 of them are conservative and 5/9 of them are extreme right. If Trump were never elected it wouldn’t have happened.

            Had liberals listened to us in 2016 about clinton and 2020 about Biden we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

            It was Pelosi that refused to bring the freedom of choice act up for a vote. It was democrats that refused to primary anyone not in support of its passage.

          What a load of bullshit.

          6 Supreme Court justices appointed by Republican presidents overturned Roe. Fuck off with that both sides crap.

        They are both diametrically opposite me. Biden aligns with my views as well as Trump aligns with yours.

          If you want to increase the likelihood of presidential elections existing in 2028 then you shouldn’t vote for Trump or a 3rd party. I don’t like it either but that’s the boat we’re all in right now.

            That’s the boat you are in. Liberals ignored leftists warning about Biden, yet supported him anyway. Democrats made this bed and mow demand we help get you out of the mess you created. I’ve been around long enough to know if we helped you would do it again.

              Obviously I can’t speak for all democrats, but I’ve never been a huge fan of Biden. He’s done some good things, he’s done some bad things. I would vote for a roll of wet single-ply toilet paper before I vote for Trump or any MAGA candidate.

              The “bed” I was referring to was mainly that Trump is one of our two options, and if he wins then it’s a pretty safe assumption he’s going to try and stay in power by any means and we won’t be voting for a new president. Yes, you are in that boat too if you live in the US.

              So just to be clear, because there is a situation where literal fascists might win (which you believe is bad… right?), you feel aggrieved at the not-actual-fascists for this scenario arising. Which is understandable! As a person in a country that is a real democratic republic, I would hate for the less-bad option to be able hold my vote hostage or be punished for a third party vote.

              But to follow the logic then that as a result you are motivated to let literal fascists win (which is… bad?)…

              To what end? To see the establishment DNC face another humiliation, which will make you feel very vindicated for 3 months… before an actual fascist assumes more power than any American president has ever had before?.. To destroy the capitalist American empire with the expectation that the American people will forget 100 years of propaganda and suddenly realise collectivism is the way to go?

                We have actual fascism in there right now. Changing the occupant doesn’t change the course of the country when they ALL answer to the same people.
