Nazi country.

The American voters legacy will be as a lumped together Wikipedia entry on apathy, hate, and stupidity.

It’s such a shame.

I get there’s a #NotAllVoters element as there is with any population, but when you have a majority of voters alongside a sizeable percentage of non-voters who don’t vote against it… well then you’ve got a country that has the president they deserve.

100% deserve, the amount of people who vote like they’re buying soap is disgusting.
It truly is disgusting. I always take a full week to sit down and carefully research everyone and everything I’m voting for. I sit down for a few hours each night with my ballot and do a couple sections until it’s done. But unfortunately, most people are not as diligent as I am nor do they care about local politics. I don’t even consider myself to be a political person, but at least I do my civic duty. That seems to be lost in the American people.

You don’t even need to do this much to be at least semi-informed. It’s grim how many people vote without thinking because they just copy their parents.

My 60 year old mother in law only stopped doing this like, 4 years ago because her kids finally got her to admit that she just voted how her dad would have done out of respect or something. Madness.

Every single election, the League of Women Voters puts out responses to their surveys about candidates’ relevant viewpoints and platform. Every single election I have to remind people it even exists. It’s the easiest way to filter out candidates. Do their viewpoints align with mine? Did they even bother to respond to the survey?

Takes like 5-10 minutes easily. There’s simply no excuse.
