    Ok I will rephrase to be polite and respectful.

    When you are presented with the option of voting for or against fascism, what makes that choice difficult?

      It’s not a difficult choice at all because, you said it yourself; voting for or against when I already stated that I would vote for no one because we as a nation have put people in power that have the authority to supercede our vote. It’s not a left or a right thing. It’s not a democracy or fascism thing. It’s a fact that every single American has to contend with because WE as American citizens allowed it to happen. Isn’t that democracy?

        Ok so you are deciding to not use your right, and thus will have no right to comment on the results of the election.

        “I dont care either way”

                    I am just trying to understand your logic of “I am unhappy with the government so i have decided to do nothing”.

                    My quotes are reflecting back your statement to show how it comes across. If you want to read it was sarcasm then thats your prerogative.

                    Your replies read as you feeling “holier than thou i don’t do politics at all” but instead coming across “I dont like the current elected representatives so I wont use the only thing I have to influence who has gets elected”

                    You can choose not to be involved in politics. But that choice means you have no right to complain about the result.
