  • I started hunting deer years ago because I wanted to be a part of the process, like if I couldn’t handle killing and gutting an animal I shouldn’t be eating meat.

    Sorry for the extreme parallel, but… “If I can’t handle murdering a defenseless child, I shouldn’t be in the military.”

    Have you considered… just not doing that?

    Also, I fucking love it.

    I guess there’s the answer.

    I tried writing my comment as nicely as possible, but the post seriously reads like a billionaire’s diary. I don’t know how else to put it.













  • Again, where did you see me saying voting is pointless?

    people who think it will work will be disappointed, meaning it won’t work

    Yes, this part is accurate, mostly. I did say they will be disappointed, but what makes you say it equates with the action of voting being pointless?

    What I said is they’ll be disappointed if they ‘expect it to fix anything because it did in completely different countries, with vastly different histories and circumstances’ [specifically in the context of US midterms, which are generally less impactful].

    Not that they’ll be disappointed if they expect it to have a point, in which case your interpretation would obviously be correct.

    Of course, the point I made is pretty general and vague. To ‘fix anything’ doesn’t mean anything particular, unless you take it literally, word for word. Which is silly, because any election is nearly guaranteed to result in fixing literally anything, such as a pothole.

    Also note the focus on comparing vastly different countries, which was the entire point, not voting itself.

    I can see why you’d jump to the conclusion, which is why I explained it to you. I don’t particularly disagree with your version. Not strongly enough to argue against it, anyway. The problem is it was never stated, which makes any claims that it was, false.
