What are the main reasons they have for not voting in favour of statehood?

I assumed he meant to say Haiti, which is still awful, but at least it would have kind of made sense...poorly.

It really whips the llama's ass

And make sure the IRQs on their sound card and printer don't conflict ?

Dammit, I got trolled.

Reported. I'm not going to respond to this continued abuse, nor will I be responding to your other posts, not because you've caught me in a 'gottcha' moment, or because I'm afraid of what you're say, I'm simply not going to lower myself to personal attacks and childish insults. If you want to behave like an adult, and discuss the issues, then do so.

Reported. I'm not going to reply to abuse.

Again, you're treating both options as if they were equally bad, and they are most certainly not.

You say that both will result in the deaths of innocent people, but you completely ignore the scale. It's like if you had to choose between being punched in the face once, or every day for the rest of your life, you would choose neither, because you don't want to be punched in the face, but while you're standing on your soapbox protesting face punching, the election rolled on, the worse option won by a handful of votes, and now you're going to be punched in the face every day, regardless of what you wanted.

If Trump wins, and you think that you can absolve yourself of any responsibility for what he will do in Gaza, or Ukraine, or for any other suffering resulting from his callous narcissism, then you're just fooling yourself. If trump wins, I will have no sympathy whatsoever for people who refused to vote, out of some sad idea of holding themselves to their principles, while at the same time allowing a literal fascist to take power.

I'm heading to bed now.

No, I'm seriously asking for you elaborate on who you think has done what, specfically, because we can't fact-check you if we don't know what you're talking about.

It's a public holiday here, I'll sleep when I'm tired.

Look, I've said everything I'm going to say, I've tried to change your mind on this, but I don't know if that's even possible at this point. I sincerely hope that your decision (and the other user posting similar replies) to abstain from voting does *not *result in Trump winning the election, but the polls are putting them so god damn close right now, that it may very well come down to a handful of votes in some of the states. Bernie is out there trying to make a positive difference, and you're basically giving him the middle finger and saying "no, I'm happy for Trump to win, and I'm happy for the situation to get worse, because my consience won't let me vote for the status quo".

I think that's such a cowardly move.

Perhaps 'common sense' was a poor choice of terminology there, because it's often far from common, or sensible, and I suspect your idea of common sense would differ from mine. in any case.

That said, what I meant by the term was that if you look at the bigger picture, instead of fixating on one aspect, you'll see that there are so many other factors to consider here - woman's rights, lgbtq recognition, racism, sexism, work class quality of life, minimum wage, unions, and so much more,, and that every single one of those would become worse under a trump presidency, for everyone except methheads with guns, and the disgustingly-wealthy. I'm going to assume that you're not in either of those groups.

What the hell is wrong with you ? Seriously.
