• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

I have never benefited from either Democrats or Republicans winning

Most of the kids here play politics as if it were a sporting event, though. All the vast majority know is what team they support and defend anything and everything associated with that team.

They don't actually follow any principles or have any values -- just blind allegiance.

You mean like defending a fat orange pedophile just because he's on your team?

I just don't see the point of voting.

When you promote one side over the other, you just look like a sport fan to me. You aren't personally winning when your party wins the election.

"Oh, but the other side is worse" begs the question of how you are personally worse off with the other party in power and you are not just brainwashed by the messaging of the party you support.

Having spent some time in the former Soviet Union and having witnessed Communism first hand, there is considerable reason to side with one side of our present political situation when one party is becoming dominated by socialist and the other party is representing the common man with common sense.

BTW, go ahead and avoid voting. You can be similar to that "ball" image that was on the original Pong game.
