    Same. Every four years, I fight within myself on whether I should bother to vote. I’m an Independent voter and I base my decision by analyzing the political parties across the scope while realizing the reality of the world we’re living in alongside it.

    And it gets tiring of the same old thing. I go and vote not Republican, I see some of the people in my circle vote Republican which makes me consider axing them to spare myself and they the drama of getting political. I get disparagingly cynical towards the American populace for their collective decision making or lack thereof considering we’re pitted again in this mess that’ll unfold in under a month.

    I look at the ballots before making my predetermined choices - D, R, D, R, G, I in a blue moon, D, R like everywhere. Maybe I could’ve written someone in, maybe, but what good does that do except win meaningless brownie points?

    Looking forward to another 4 years I’ll have a hard time remembering because of my mental efforts to block out the enormous amount of bullshit yet to come. Just like the last time between 2016 - 2021.
