If you live in a democracy it is YOUR DUTY to pay attention, inform youself, and vote intelligently to maintain that democracy that many, many people DIED to give you.

If you don't, you're a piece of trash.

This was a no brainer. A TRAITOR ran for office after attempting to violently end our democracy. Every piece of trash that didn't show up to vote against that traitor is a piece of trash.

The United States is not and has never been a democracy for the poorest 90% of the population. It's been scientifically studied, and the opinions of the bottom 90% have no bearing on the outcome of legislation that is actually passed. Democracy only exists for the wealthiest 10% of the US population.

Why are you calling people trash when 90% of them don't live in a democracy at all?

Bullshit. Dead people have no bearing on how the living operate. The only duty people have is to fucking feed themselves and such.

Found the loser that doesn't grasp how important democracy is or that people DIE for it so that others that come after them can benefit from it.

I'm here, aren't I? Of course I'm way more plugged in and consume far more news than the average person. I vote, all the time. I encourage people I know and meet IRL to vote. Of course the US would be a better place if everyone were a bit more engaged. With each other, the world around them, politics, and the news.

But I get pissed off when people don't seem to grasp that not everyone thinks like they do and they never will. When people are disgusted that others act differently than they do... I hope you can see why I would have a problem with that.

And when I find someone so willing to completely disappear up their own asshole about CIVIC DUTY and a bunch of people deaf for centuries... Just shut the fuck up already. Nobody cares except for the people that already think exactly like you do.

Lol.

Kiddo. We aren't talking about having differing opinions about taxes or regulations or policy of any kind.

These are fucking dipshits that fail their CIVIC DUTY to vote in a democracy, particularly WHEN THAT DEMOCRACY IS BEING THREATENED.

Are you still gonna be treating these fucking clowns gently when your democracy is FUCKING GONE because they couldn't be bothered to uphold their responsibility? Pick up a history book and find out how shitty that situation would be if it came to pass.

You seem to not understand the situation we are currently in or that not voting has nothing to do with "differing opinions". I suggest you do whatever is necessary to get your head out of your own asshole. No one should be kind to non-voters EVER, but especially not now. And no one with a brain would be framing their FAILURE as a "differing opinion".

You can all caps all you want, buddy, you're still just talking to people that already think like you do.
