Some people's lives are so bad they would rather focus on personal survival than electing the good cop over the bad cop, both of whom would likely make their lives either a little or a lot worse every single year. "Our country is at stake" only really matters if you have systemic benefits from this country- otherwise, it just seems like it's a plea for victims of this country to take your comfort into consideration above anything else. Sure, we're on the precipice of a fascist takeover where even the white people in gated neighborhoods could start feeling even fractionally as bad as people of color currently do, but it might be worth considering this perspective isn't just some petty or ignorant thing- it's a rotten system created by racist white men that might not be worth participating in because even if the system is perfectly fixed, there will always be people on top and people on the bottom. At least with Kamala, there is a hope of traveling farther away from that "racist white man who begs me for votes and never delivers on promises" trope, so it doesn't surprise me one bit.

How would they know the country is at stake when they're desinterested in politics or only watch TV?

I want you to consider the actual danger of voting for people like them, if Trump is elected. You likely live in a state where your voter record is public. Now, add that you’re not caucasian. Or not religious (lest we forget the religious nuts making maps of non-religion homes). Or in a non-traditional marriage/relationship. And nevermind the fact the meal team 6 will be standing guard at every voting station to disenfranchise these voters…

When your voting choice is the lesser evil of two old white guys, neither whom have your interests in mind? Yeah, its safer and smarter to keep to yourself and stay home. Because Trump and Project 25 are a danger to everyone not on their list.

Of course Kamala is the bright shining light and I’m even more excited. This will be the first election that I am so excited to vote, since Obama. And I hope we get enough to get a large enough majority to correct the damage done these last 12 years and do everything possible to undo any cheating advantage the right has remaining.

Just two unfortunate people honestly.

Don’t worry, little bot, I still appreciate you.

Go outside, take a breath, you need it

There's always time to delete your comments

Get better material. Literally engage with any other material on Lemmy and people won't call you a troll.

🥱

More accurate would be, Kamala or stay home and let the country be taken over.

Anybody else smell burnt toast, or is that just me?

You mean the polls that were entirely within the margin of error for Hillary's nationwide vote? A nationwide percentage that she did, in fact, win?

Wtf

Yeah.

I too plan on signing up for a Mars expedition tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure I won't.

Polling is nice, yet kinda useless. What we often like to claim to others rarely comes true when it's time to actually go through with it.
