The fact that he's calling Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates Leftists shows there's no reason to vote for a moderate over an actual Leftist in hopes they'll be able to negotiate better with the right.

No member of the Koch family is even center-right. David is dead, Charles (even more of a fascist than David) is running the show, Bill isn’t involved in the family politics but is a classic Thurston Howell type who cares about yachts and antique wines and is still a fascist, just lazy about it.

The next person to tell me to "just vote third party" is deserving of a wedgie delivered straight to their face.

It's not "vote third party (if you like them more)" it's "vote third party (instead of not voting)."

One of them has a chance of sending a message to Democrats that they can't loving shove Joe Pro Iraq War Anti Abortion Pro Segregation Anti Health Care Biden at us and expect us to support him just because to do otherwise is to help the Republican version of oh poo poo exactly the same policies, because a worthy enrolled voter showed up and decided to go for literally anyone else.

The other one has you filed under the same label as the guy who forgot it was polling day and the lady who wasn't able to get out to the polling booth in time, both of whom the Democrats apparently think would totally have voted for Joe [...] Biden.

We haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

Don't you get it, we HAVE TO get together en masse and share germs in this week's protest which is exactly like all the other protests in the past year which haven't actually done jack poo poo.

Because if we acknowledge that there's kind of a plague or something going on, then that means that it kind of almost looks like we're obeying THE MAN. And death is preferable to anything that might be mistaken for obedience! If we acknowledge that microbes exist, then THE BILLIONAIRES WIN.

Voting for third parties in the US has the advantage of giving those parties access to public campaign funds in future elections, if they receive enough votes. So it does in theory accomplish more to vote for a third-party candidate than just to stay home. :shrug:

I've told it before; but one year we were under a complete tsunami warning. Anyone who lived too close to the water was being told to evacuate further inland, all the beaches were shut the gently caress down and the roads were being closed quickly too - they didn't want anyone anywhere that wasn't safe for sure. So, as a final drive around to see what was going on me and my friends went out and were treated to an amazing spectacle of this tourist with his family on a beach. The only people on that beach, arguing with a cop about how it was his right as an american to take his family out on this beach and enjoy their vacation. It was a stormy grey day, this man was just being an obstinate rear end in a top hat and I'm surprised the cop didn't forcibly drag him away.

I always hate poo poo like this because the "wokeness" part of the equation isn't even in the top 20 things that caused it to get to this point. We have leaders mismanaging a pandemic, institutionalized lies, corporate strangeholds on personal lives, media-fueled class infighting, capitalism restructuring our loving brains to a fundamental level, antiunion lobbying forcing workers to get hosed over, republican legislation grinding people like this under the heel of a boot. Some dipshit on twitter going "well I'm not boycotting bars during the COVID scare, that's classism" doesn't even loving register on the scale at this point.

Red Robin isn't a shithole, it's just incredibly bland and dumb. It's hard to explain if you aren't familiar with American chain restaurants that aren't fast food. It is to burgers what Olive Garden is to Italian food and Red Lobster is to sea food.

Have you seen Office Space? It's basicaly the restaurant Jennifer Aniston works at in the beginning of the movie except you're only required to wear half as much flair and none of the managers care enough to actually count how much flair you have.

You're badly misunderstanding me.

The person I was replying to said that if they're stuck between Biden and Trump then they won't bother voting. If you have a preference between senile old man number one and senile old man number two, obviously go vote for one or the other. One of them is going to win no matter what. But if, like the person I replied to, you're planning to not use your vote anyway and genuinely don't care which one wins, voting outside the two parties is a more visible "I hate both of you" than just staying home, even though it will have no actual impact on the result assuming, again, you weren't planning to bother voting anyway.

Every surface, vertical or horizontal, is a screen with a video, ad, or game and yet music blares over it all. Everything has a full cup of seasoned salt poured directly on it. Nothing contains fewer than seven mixers or toppings; even the sodas can't restrain themselves to mere soda water and syrup. The burgers are overlarge, overcooked, and overseasoned. The servers are desperately friendly to cover the palpable atmosphere of weed-stunted depression they inhabit in the back room. Babies are obese and have milkshakes.
