I voted for Harris and the people you’re losing are the ones who don’t care about feeling superior, they just don’t feel like voting is very important and dumb statements like “regardless of who is elected, this bad thing won’t change” reinforce that idea.

If we did mandatory voting, made election day a federal holiday, and treated it like a much more important civil duty the results would be wildly different.

None of that will fix a system so broken where there are only two viable parties and both support genocide.
