Exhibit A where you conveniently dance around things to virtue signal on one issue.

Learn another phrase man. Goddamn. I'm starting to believe you're writing these posts with ChatGPT that's overusing that word like it does with the word "delve."

It's a sign of a small mind that you can't give your opponents even the courtesy of accepting that they actually believe what they say believe. In your mind it has to be a plot or an act.

What did I sidestep that you want me to address? I addressed why they say same things both sides, why they talk about staying home. You are the one who has failed to respond to those explanations, you simply repeat what you post in every topic as if I haven't said anything, you cut out those parts of the post and repeat the thing you already said and thought.

In a voting system where most of the power we have is our votes as individuals and blocs, and demographics, threatening not to vote or vote third party before the actual election is one of the only ways to influence anything. That's reality if you want to talk about reality. They understand that, and you understand that, but you don't want them to so much as acknowledge or discuss that reality. And when they do, you ascribe the worst possible motivations to them despite them outright telling you their motivations. Because you are okay with the status quo. And because them doing that and all the other things they're doing to try to influence things puts you to shame for not doing the same.

Well a lot of people aren't okay with the status quo and they're doing what they can do voice that, whether that's protesting, boycotting, occupying, organizing labor actions, or yes, threatening to withhold votes. That's all different from actually withholding votes or telling people to vote for Trump.
