I'm still voting against Trump. Because my feelings of butthurt do not exceed my hatred for every single thing Donald Trump stands for.
So, here's the thing, I understand what you're saying. However, calling someone who's vote we need "butthurt," or otherwise antagonizing them is super counterproductive. Don't get me wrong, I'm not asking for a "kinder and gentler" TGRR, that would be truly horrifying. But shit, at least keep it to yourself until the election is over so people actually trying to reach to potential voters out don't have an additional hurdle to climb, as it is, the DNC can't stop getting in their own way and making things difficult.
Dude, 4+ years ago, I was called a Nazi and a racist and a libertarian because I was voting for Bernie, and nobody said shit about it. Not one person, *including* everyone giving me shit now.
But now I have to be nice, because Saint Bernie is involved.
No, I don't. I in fact feel no need to accept political wisdom or moral guidance from PD, because it's nothing but cock andreposthypocrisy all the way down.
This has literally got nothing to do with Bernie at this point. It's about getting people who would otherwise not vote to get out there and get this orange fucktard out of office. You either help or don't. No one said you had to be happy about it. I'm certainly not. But if it's more important to you to antagonize people on the internet, fine, just realize it's making other people's jobs more difficult. For every one one person I can convince to "come around" we lose three or four because someone was antagonizing them.
Right here (PD), right now (this election), it's all personal. All of it.
Outside of PD I am quite willing to be more persuasive. But inside of PD, not so much.
This I can understand and respect, but it wasn't me that called you any of those things.
