    “It’s not important what you think, but if you don’t decide biden is better we’ll all lose”

    Maybe things would be better if only the reasonable adults voted? Maybe only white land owners, even, because clearly all these delusional normies are gonna ruin our election.

    Democracy means (i guess in theory, though i think it’s at least the ideal) everyone’s opinion matters the same amount. You’re right though, we’re not voting for individual policies (that’d be a lot better here), so instead your candidate needs delusional citizens like myself to think well enough about him to pick him, or anyone at all

      Yeah I don’t know who told you your political opinion matters to anyone but eventually adults tend to recognize that’s not how life works.

      You can pull one of two levers- that’s the only time what you think actually matters.
