it's almost impossible nowadays to be friends with someone with an opposing political stance
its not smart but it is survival
because often
Indeed. Question is. Do they pick up the stone and throw back?
they will treat you like a fucking monster
no
you don't
Exactly
thats a value judgement, there is no right answer before hignsight
It's not impossible but hard, AG. You just have to find the right people, whose mindset doesn't act in such a manner
The platform you talk on also matters
the real sick thing is when you remember that voter turnout in 2016 was something around 50%
I heard it was about 65%?
meaning that there's a decent chance that the hateful asshole who wants to kill you for being Republican didn't vote
yeah I know >CNN but still
Washington (CNN)Voter turnout this year dipped to nearly its lowest point in two decades.
While election officials are still tabulating ballots, the 126 million votes already counted means about 55% of voting age citizens cast ballots this year.
well i mean hillery clinton did go on a large career ending rant about how her fans didint vote for her
Well, shit. Can't blame them, the MSM fucking HATED Trump, Bernie sanders got fucked in favor of Hillary
she wasn't entirely wrong
and so chances are they didn't even bother to vote
when i think about how thousands of people who want Donald Trump dead didn't even bother to show up to the polls, I can't decide whether I should laugh or weep
Both?
Laugh at their stupidity, weep at their hate
oh I don't care about their hate
if anything I laugh at their hate
the fact that they put so much energy towards hating someone they literally can't touch humors me
I weep for the fact that these people didn't even bother to exercise their right to help decide their nation's future
How much did Hillary's campaign spend on their campaign anyway?
2 Billion?
too much
and probably more than trump
Trump spent around $80-100 million in total last time I checked. Hillary some $1.2 billion to $2 billion
You know you're "loved" when you have them dumping everything they have at you, and you still manage to get elected
yeah
I was 18 in 2016
and I remember being really eager to vote
I am embarrassed that my country donated $25 million to the Clinton campaign
and I will never not vote in a federal election ever
because all I need to do
