      I don’t know. I don’t need to know.

      I’m not voting for Bidens genocide.

      You can too. Walk away from omelas with me.

          Wow that’s crazy, so if I can’t stop the genocide with voting then why vote?

          You’re really making a great case and not alienating anyone who reads this. Keep going!

            Why, because some idiot, yourself, doesn’t know how voting works they will then proceed to not vote?

            If my vote can’t give me free ice cream why even vote at all!!!

              Let me make sure I understand correctly. Are you saying that opposition to genocide is comparable with wanting “free ice cream?”

                So youre saying you not voting will have an effect on the genocide in gaza?

                In the trolly problem, not pulling the lever results in more people dieing.

                    Well then I couldn’t possibly be comparing ice cream to genocide because the supposition is the belief that voting will have an effect on receiving ice cream.

              No matter how powerfully you make the case for not voting, I’m going to cast ballot for PSL at the presidential level this year.

              You can too. No ones gonna come after you for it. You’ll be voting against trump and showing the democrats that they gotta get their shit together and run better candidates with platforms that aren’t abhorrent.

                I could. Wouldn’t even effect the outcome in my state. Down ballot is what I show up for.

                Still voting Biden because ill put my vote where it actually has a chance of mattering. Third party is a scam. Third party needs grass roots, any other supposed means is a scam.

                  You could be those grass roots. You said yourself it won’t change your states outcome.

                  Instead of voting for someone you don’t want, or against someone you don’t want, why not vote for something you do want?
