I haven’t voted in years after reading the argument that voting mainly serves to slot you into a cohort, making it easier for governments and corporations to profile you. Recently I heard someone argue the opposite angle: don’t vote because none of the politicians deserve you. A comedian mocked that stance as basically holding your breath when you are angry.
Now I’m conflicted because both arguments feel compelling in different ways. What are your strongest arguments for voting, or against voting?
Lol? What are you even talking about?
Republicans all vote in unison with each other. They all vote the way the party tells them to. There is no dissent in the GOP…only what the party elites want.
A Lisa Murkowski couldn’t happen in the DNC because the VOTERS would never accept having the party’s candidate shoved down their throats like that. If they had rejected her in the primary, there’s no way they would have accepted her in the general.
But not Republicans. Republicans do what the party tells them to, without question. They follow whatever commands the party gives them, because that’s what they’ve been programmed to do.
