Title: Should I Bother Voting Today?
Post by: OlympiaGym on November 08, 2022, 04:26:31 AM
Blue state/red voter. Debating whether I should get out of bed and head to the polls (no thought of going to gym since going natty). They say the governor’s race is somewhat competitive but I assume the Dems will find enough inner-city votes to win. Apathetic is how I’m feeling.

Yes, vote today.  Hopefully enough Dem voters are feeling apathetic too, or confident, and won't vote.

Voting is rigged. You really think the elites would allow peasants/ bottom feeders to decide anything? Bread and circuses since the dawn of time

"Democratic elections" is theatre. It's a stage on which actors are being moved around while the audience thinks it's making a difference by participating. It doesn't work well.

Democracy is a complete failure when scaled up to a size larger than a community. Even Plato disliked democracy in Athens (which was a city-state). To be fair, ancient democracy was a bit simpler and more "direct" than what I see today but it was nevertheless democracy, which is essentially putting a politician into a position of illegitimate authority through marketing campaigns.

Imagine if Apple held an election in which, every five years, the staff vote for a new CEO. Skills, expertise and the ability to run the company don't matter because what matters is the popularity of the new guy and how cool he looks on the poster.
It makes no sense.
Hans-Herman Hoppe wrote a good book, called Democracy: The God That Failed, in which he critiques the concept of democracy and why monarchy (no, not like in the UK) and natural order are superior.

Furthermore, democracies are a vector towards totalitarianism, thanks to perpetual inclusions of more laws, taxation, restriction of movement, wars, rights and social welfare.

Regarding totalitarianism, I can't think of a single democracy that did not lock down its citizens, with the help of police and military and blindly obedient citizenry, democratic governments took great pride in pushing for a mass rollout of dangerous mRNA jabs for an imaginary virus during 2020 (A few months before Joe Biden's rigged win)

That being said...

YES  :D

I dont vote. Never have, never will. If it's true that Biden stole the election, then that likely means that ALL past elections were rigged and your vote meant nothing.

If the people in this thread believe that the 2020 election was rigged, why are you even voting? Essentially, your vot means nothing.

I dont follow politics but the 2020 election was almost impossible not to hear about it.

If this goes back to 2000 and beyond that, then it strengthens my case for not voting. Its a pointless endeavor.

Elections have always been rigged to some degree.

In the way back votes were bought for a beer.

Nowadays there is likely less rigging but some still goes on.

That does not excuse you from your responsibility as an American citizen to vote.  Many have given their lives to give you the right.

I've missed voting in a few elections myself over the years so I can't be righteous but we must vote whenever we can.

I vote. Always have, always will. It only takes one vote to win and election or pass an initiative, a bond levy, and a proposed tax increase.

I do not believe the 2020 election was rigged. I believe Trump lost the election.

Seems the projected "red wave" dissipated this time.

Clackamas County Clerk Sherry Hall was voted out last night. The reason being she screwed up the the vote last May. It was not the first time or the last time mistakes were made under her watch. It was about time we got someone who can do the job.

I’m so so. Still haven’t got bloods because I’m afraid to know. Overall, my mood is fine. Libido is down but everything still works. Motivation to work out is low and I’ve been mostly doing walking. People at work tell me I look great since I’ve dropped 25 pounds and probably look better in business attire.

Are they? All of them? I was not aware of this. Are you including local, state, and federal elections. I've chaired and served on my union’s election committee many times. I can assure you there is no fraud in our elections. We go to extremes to make sure of that. If there is any question, we do additional recounts and occasionally another vote. These decisions add time to the overall process, which can make some folks unhappy.

If you're in Cali, WA, or OR, just wake up and head to the liquor store or pot dispensary, get fucked up all day long, watch funny movies, forget about the whole election shit as your vote doesn't matter, and then get fucked up some more, pass out, wake up, and start the day off right fucking your girl or jacking off to some quality porn.  I voted in person where it does matter, is red and stayed red, and followed this protocol.  November 9th was great! ;D

Rant on. All this election denialism obviously did not play well in Peoria. “Oh, the machine software is rigged.” “Oh no, regular ballots represent a real problem. They have to check the signatures.” No way to satisfy people who simply do not like the way Americans are voting.
