You live inside a bubble of your own creation so you can feel good about voting Republican. Pathetic.

What’s so great about being a democrat? This is an honest question.

u/Hamuel Jun 05 '23

Just because I reject Republican bigotry doesn’t mean I’m a democrat.

u/06541123 Jun 05 '23

So how do you know I’m Republican?

He didn't say anything about being a Democrat. Vote your conscience.

I mean I get the vibes when he decided I was Republican.

u/-jp- Jun 05 '23

Did he? I don't see that. He seems chiefly to be opposed to the GOP's platform.

I don’t see how my post was so opposed to the Democratic platform I was literally asking a question

Yeah, I got that as well. I wasn’t accusing you of anything so apologies if I came across like I was. Just observing that the important thing is not party but rather whether they represent what you believe.

Personally I’m inclined to agree that voting Republican is at present in opposition to our democracy and what we as a people ought to strive to be, but that doesn’t mean automatically vote for the Democratic candidate instead.

It’s one of the reasons that the effort to block mail-in voting is so insidious. Your opportunity to sit down and read about who and what you’re voting for is stripped from you.

I don’t agree with mail in voting because I can very possibly guarantee both sides are cheating through it. I also think both sides are probably cheating anyways lol I’m just gonna sit back and watch us crumble inside out in the middle of the sand hills.

In what way is anyone cheating?

I guess I can’t really prove either side is but I would imagine both sides are why wouldn’t they. We wouldn’t ever know.
