    Who is “you people”. I’m not American.

    I also wasn’t a huge fan of Kamala but at least she wasn’t threatening the sovereignty of numerous nations. She had terrible views on Gaza but she also wasn’t talking about bulldozing Gaza to set up her own luxury resort on top of the corpses.

    But no thank you for being so moral as to not vote for her. I’ll think of you when Trump sends his military into Canada and my city

      You people are the ones fighting the non-voters instead of those nominating candidates the people don’t want to vote for.

      Instead of getting mad at me, you people should be getting mad at those who keep nominating candidates I refuse to vote for.

      You’re wasting your breath trying to convince me to change. I’ve said before all you guys do when you get angry at me for non-voting is reinforce my decision to do so. This means that all of you arguing against me are actually arguing in favor of more fascism, because that’s what we keep getting.

        A protest (non) vote is useless if you’re not going to get to vote again. If you want to fight for something, maybe fight to get rid of FPTP and your two party system that has lead to this scenario.

        Instead of getting mad at me, you people should be getting mad at those who keep nominating candidates I refuse to vote for.

        I am mad at them. I don’t even like the Democratic Party, they’re barely any better than the Canadian Conservative Party (at least before PP who has pushed the party much further in Trump’s direction).

        But again, at least they weren’t planning an invasion of my country, or Panama, or Greenland/Denmark. Or putting people (including Canadians!) in camps. Or selling out Ukraine to buddy up with Russia. Or tearing down any “check and balance” your government had, in record time

        I may not be able to convince you but you’re definitely affirming my view
