    I’m not interested in arguing with someone so dense. You can investigate voter suppression and disinfranchisement, maybe enlighten yourself, or you can continue to blame your fellow voters for everything and see how far that gets you. Either way neither of us will be able to affect change, but at least I’ll be able to sleep at night without being a ignorant rube too high on his own self-righteous “I care about politics!” Copium to realize that politics and politicans have had a vested interest in a lack of public participation for years and they’ve acted upon that interest. There’s no cabal, conspiracy, or shadow nonsense it’s happening in broad daylight right in front of you. Gerrymandering, electoral college votes, voter suppression via voting location reduction, campaigns against proven safe mail in voting. Idk how you’re so fucking dense, but hey, you vote so for my own vested interests sake (because I don’t want it to be this way) I waste air and time responding to you, although it’s becoming abundantly clear you’d rather root yourself in ignorance and victim blaming.

      And there it is. Neither of us will be able to affect change you say. That’s the real core of your argument here. You just want an excuse not to do anything. Some of us affect change every day. Some of us are out there knocking on doors while you sit on your couch.

        Jesus fuck my guy; you’re so fucking attached to your self righteousness it’s egregious. If you honestly believe you’re affecting change in a system this large by having the viewpoints and attitude you do, you’re delusional. Nobody wants your bullshit door to door. They feel and are disinfranchised. If your creepy ass showed up to my door, I’d shut it on you because it’s fucking weird and stupid given a modern understanding of politics to campaign that way. You’re an old man working in DOS, but times have changed. They’ve left you behind. Be mad about it if you want, but you’ve got nobody to blame except perhaps the very “parties” you’re aiming to aid.

          Enjoy sitting alone on a couch complaining that you can’t do anything while the world moves around you. You’ve created a lot of justification for yourself.

            Enjoy squirming around relentlessly and bitterly while the world continues on as it has and will despite your struggles.
