    The majority of Americans in general regardless of age didn't vote at all. I think I understand what you were trying to say either that or you were just being ageist

    Not a majority, just a plurality

      History shows that if the Dems regain full control, they will not reverse all this carnage 100%. They will reverse maybe 25% of it and pretend the rest isn't happening and maybe claim they don't have enough control and we'll hear the term bipartisan.

      That's why I don't even fucking vote anymore. When they DO have some ability to improve things, they barely do. Biden proved to be exactly the slow-moving watered-down change I expected.

      Fuck em all. And fuck you when you tell me how wrong I am. I really don't give a fuck.

      Put up serious change on the ticket or I'll just roll my eyes again.

        white isn't a race it's the social construct that means the absence of race

        Irish stopped being a race when they were accepted into whiteness by becoming police in large number

        That's why it's literally impossible to be racist against white people

        white isn’t a race it’s the social construct that means the absence of race

        All "races" are social constructs, there are no biological races for our species and the way we define social races isn't even uniform across different cultures.

        means the absence of race

        And that is actually a profoundly racist statement that roots many portions of white supremacist ideology.

        why it’s literally impossible to be racist against white people

        While it's quite easy to argue that white people are in no danger of becoming ethnically prosecuted in most of western society, your statement that it's impossible to be racist against white people is got a built in logic contradiction and is therefore invalid by nature. Even without the contradiction, all it takes to take down a blanket statement like that is finding a counter-example, and that's so trivial I could find historical examples in less than five minutes.

            You already conceded that white is not a race; it's the social designation of who deserves privilege in society. So I don't understand why you're talking out of both sides of baby's first mouth.

            Mate, using your logic "black" isn't a race. This is also technically true, but not really how the term "race" is used. Taking your logic and applying it to this term that is widely accepted caloquially as a race, you end up being able to say that it's "impossible to be racist against black people" which would be seen as a racist remark.

              Lets just say, they protested and did direct action. Which is more meaningful and has a greater positive effect than some kayfabe like voting.

                My vote in the last election LITERALLY WOULD NOT HAVE CHANGED A GOD DAMNED THING.

                Get the fuck over yourself and just let your high horse fuck you in the ass. Take your idealism elsewhere. Fucking exhausting.

                  Doing something is always better than doing nothing. You don’t get to cry if you did nothing, nobody should care about nothing, if you do nothing you are nothing. Stop fucking crying about it.

                  Strawman argument to presume a wasted vote is doing something, or that there are no other things to be doing.

                  I'm not crying about it. I'm telling fuckers who demand everyone vote to step the right fuck off their high horse and look around and see the math. It wouldn't have mattered for so many.

                    This would be an argument for not attending protests or volunteering. But voting takes basically no fucking effort.

                    That's a privileged take. The right wing has made voting a lot fucking harder for certain groups in certain places.

                        Are you implying I should give a shit about something here? Cause I really don't. Try harder with an actual argument rather than an idiot popularity vote.

                          Always astonishing to me that I am either being cut lightly a thousand times or fucking gutted by a fish, and I'm angry about all of it and you all seem to think the mature answer is to be grateful for the light cutting cause it's "better" by comparison.

                          Most people are complete utter fucking morons about this. Enjoy voting for slower death and somehow finding a smugness in it.

                            Don't complain. You said the options were 100% carnage, or 75% carnage, and because there's no 0% carnage option, you're happy letting 100% win. What people are trying to explain to you is that you should reduce harm as much as possible, even if you can't reduce it entirely.

                                        Explain how it isn't? Typically once someone resorts to name calling in a discussion it's a good sign they know they're in the wrong.
