This is the kind of short term thinking that created this mess. Refusal to look at the big picture because it wonāt affect you directly is how your grandchildren end up in a mass grave. Wise men plant trees whose fruit they will never eat. Fools fiddle while Rome burns. Iād say you should be ashamed, but I donāt know that your still capable of such a thing. Far too many in such a position arenāt.
Heās mad that you donāt think the Dems are as bad or worse than the Republicans. Lemmy is full of these idiots that canāt understand harm reduction or voting pragmatically. They deserve the republicans theyāre empowering.
Iām mad that you think merely supporting democrats is sufficient. Sure, circling the drain slowly buys time, but if you arenāt using that time for something productive, what are you actually gaining? Youāre one of a handful of people with the resources to actually make a difference, and youāre wasting them? At the very least stop trying to discourage people from seeing the systemic problems and start pointing them at organizations that will do what you apparently are too busy with your yacht to support.

Except the choice is that someone else is getting shot or stabbed.
Dems would have been better for the US and for the world. Ultimately though, Iām personally not going to be affected much either way.
*yet
Theyāre coming for you and yours eventually. Itās in their nature. Youāre just not the target yet.
Yes, like I said, the lesser evil would have been better for everyone.
But as a white guy with a yacht capable of sailing the oceans, theyāre coming for me last.

So are you mad that I support the democrats instead of the republicans?
Or are you just mad that I recognized what the world is and made sure that I and my people would be fine?

Oh, youāre one of those people that thinks once you vote youāre no longer capable of doing anything else.
What part of my comment is suggesting that? Iām literally saying thatās exactly what people shouldnāt be doing.

Probably that part.
