    Isn’t it likely in your opinion that if it isn’t for whoever you decide is best it’s the same thing?

          Yeah the difference is the people who vote for Trump will kill me with their vote out of stupidity, and/or maliciousness. Those who do not vote will kill me simply to feel superior to those who vote.

            They are privileged to not need a sense of urgency or get respite. Its easy to keep your sense of purity and wait around when your not under siege.

              Yup, the “none of this will get worse FOR ME” crowd who dismiss the idea that everything else will be worse, likely even the situations they “care” about, but they aren’t actually affected by. No sense of harm reduction when the harm isn’t upon you, yet.

                  it’s nice that other people’s voting habits aren’t going to literally kill you. Have fun on that high horse, I am sure slowly, and painfully, dying, was worth your sense of superiority. Though, I doubt you believe this is a fatal turn of events for me. Privilege blinds people.
