On Political Voting

“If you didn’t vote, you can’t have an opinion.”

These people would never care for your opinion even if you voted.

“You voted for a 3rd party? That’s a wasted vote.”

These people are suckers to tribalism. They wouldn’t support a policy that doesn’t neatly fit inside their party’s plan.

The people who don’t want to discuss politics with those refusing to vote “for the lesser of two evils” are the ones who only vote for the president and governor.

Yet, they hold opinions on how school should be ran without attending a board meeting, hate the taste of their water without writing a complaint to waterworks, or say the country needs more troops without allowing their kid to enter the military.

Sadly, the majority limit their political involvement to two people.

To do politics, one must fight for change in policies themselves, not merely select someone who creates a false promise through pristine rhetoric.
