That’s fine. I don’t necessarily dispute that other than to ask the simple question that if one person commits fraud does that justify telling 150 million people not to show up?
Like there’s obviously a threshold here which I think most would agree with.
And if you think the current voting system is largely fraudulent I’m not even disagreeing with that premise.
But I think I have demonstrated there is significant value in still taking the time to go vote.
And I stand by my statement that encouraging people here not to vote is a deep state shill position.
If I ran the site I would ban that type of commentary. Not because I’m anti-free speech but because most of it is obviously inorganic propaganda.
Uh, you’re both subjectively and precisely identifying it as rigged though.
When the reality is more like “10 to 20 percent more rigged”.
I don’t like using that language especially as it sounds similar to a few asshole senators and their comments. But this is a much more correct description of the situation IMO.
The difference between me and them is I’m not asking you to accept that fact.
I’m saying fight against the clearly illegal activity while also taking the time to go vote.
In addition let’s look at the scenario where we DO stop voting.
What happens when at some point in the future when we manage to fix this.
Suddenly all these people are instantly going to show up to vote again?!?!?
As a third point let’s also examine the scenario on the opposite side.
Imagine if we were pushing the Dems not to show up. Can you even take that seriously?! It sounds like something 4chan would do.
It’s why I am so offended by the people who push this.
Because to me if you think it through encouraging people to stay home from voting is such a obvious deep state loser position.
There’s a ton of other loser positions floating around here right now as well. But the don’t go vote one is clearly the most detrimental.
If someone was in the middle of killing you and your death appeared like it might be 10% more likely would you instantly give up?
Voting is not nearly as difficult.
Stop representing that spending 30 minutes once every year in an attempt to save the nation is somehow too much of an effort.
It’s fucking shameful. You should delete this defeatist nonsense.
Voter fraud virtually ensures tyranny. The solution to it can't be found at the voting station.

Uh, I think the argument is why participate in a rigged system, not that it takes too much time/trouble to vote.
