    Yep- sorry nobody cares what you think deep down inside, snowflake. Only matters how you vote. Biden or Trump- plus all the downballot stuff you don’t care enough to think about. Pitch a hissy fit if you want but that’s your reality.

      Ok gee golly mister, you convinced me to support a war criminal! I’m sure he’ll win now that you’ve secured my support :)

        Of course you won’t vote for Biden. Choosing the lesser evil in an evil world takes a lot of strength and you’re obviously very weak.

          Wait, I thought Biden was good, actually. Isn’t he like our best president since FDR or something? Now you’re telling me he’s evil??

            Yeah he’s evil as Knievel, Jumps busses and shit. But you can’t vote anyway so doesn’t matter.

              Grown ups know that sometimes genocide is cool and good, actually.

                I think you illustrate my point.

                Grown ups know that life is full of hard choices and that it’s pretty damned rare that you get everything you want in any situation. We also tend to understand that there are many things that we cannot change or can only change a little, sometimes over a long period of time.

                Choosing not to choose or “standing on principal” is often counter-productive.

                  Some principles ought to be inflexible. It’s kind of the definition of a principle. I know what compromise is, and I know right from wrong. It’s wrong to compromise on certain things. If growing up means forgetting that, then miss me with growing up.

                    The problem is they are not inflexible. You compromise ALL the time.

                    For example, you are perfectly willing to overlook all the other genocide in the world.

                    Think about it.

                  The last time centrists didn’t get literally everything they wanted, they formed a PAC to get McCain elected.

      sorry nobody cares what you think deep down inside, snowflake.

      I’m not usually a “both sides” kinda guy, but you sound exactly like a MAGAt.
