It's like yeah, you should have just voted for Clinton although she sucks, but everyone who voted Republicans should have just done that too and also voted for a worse candidate and also has worse views of the world. Oh for sure. But they wanted this to happen. They are excited that this is happening and they got what they were voting for. The frustration, for me, isn't even so much assigning blame right now. It is more so along the lines of "if you sat out 2016 or voted third party to send a message in a swing state, you also don't get to complain about Roe vs. Wade being overturned." You were told this could happen and your response at the time was "I don't care". So if they didn't care then I don't want to see them complaining about the consequences of their actions now. Like you pointed out Hillary was a garbage candidate. But I pushed people to vote her in spite of her being a garbage candidate in those swing states, and their response at the time was basically to call me a toady for the democratic party and that I didn't genuinely care about the stuff we had discussed in detail for years. So to now see these people on Facebook going ballistic...it is annoying to me, personally and I feel like throwing the "you didn't genuinely care about this stuff we talked about" argument right back in their face even though I'm not even sure they remember telling me it. It is less of a sweeping general statement and more of a personal frustration. --- Moops? "I thought you were making up diseases? That's spontaneous dental hydroplosion." <cite>Suprak the Stud posted [p:957661781] in Politics C...
