American brains have been raised to expect a return on investment and they see voting as an investment. Why would you continue to invest in something that doesn't generate any return?

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC

basically yes.

although I don't think there's any particular attachment to fascism for these folks. All that matters is that they're involved in a sort of unmaking/destruction as a group.

Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.

I mean, when you vote for someone you do so with the expectation that the person you are voting for will do something that you are wanting. If the people you keep voting for are very obviously uninterested in representing you or even stopping things from getting worse, you are right to hate them.

It's not quite the same as a purchase or investment, but you are not wrong to be wanting something in return for your support at some point. That's the point of voting. You are voting for someone to represent your interests. Representing people usually involves action on the part of the representative, in the form of doing something their voters want.

yeah even in the fantasy realm where your voting preferences are entirely altruistic and made without reference to your own self-interest AND capitalism has been abolished or w/e, the whole process of representative democracy pretty explicitly is and should always be a transactional quid pro quo
