Get what I wrote back in context. If you, the collective you, don't vote for either Trump or Harris you have no legitimate right to complain about their presidency.

This is America, and anyone has the legitimate right to complain about anything they please.

No, what I wrote below is not bullshit. You don't deserve more or less than any other citizen. If you don't vote for the one of the two viable candidates, you forfeit your right to bitch about the way the election turns out. The disgrace is the arrogance of those who think their vote, their wants are more important than any other citizen's. I thought I read that y'all loved democracy? Sounds like you want it all your way. That's not democracy. It's an autocracy. Make up your minds about what you want.

You have no reason to complain if you don't vote against him then.

What makes them the only two viable candidates other than a bunch of partisans who have convinced themselves of that, and a bunch of extreme partisans who do everything they can to keep them convinced?

I would like to see the day when people wake up and realize they can vote for whoever they want, and the dems and gop can take all their esoteric machinations intended to ensure they are both the prime power brokers...and shove that straight up their collective asses.

I absolutely have a legitimate right to complain about their presidency. Just because you don't like free speech doesn't mean I cannot comment on the platforms or actions of politicians I find troubling.

Except Trump voters, right?

No. Why would you say that given that Trump voters complain every day, non-stop? It is in fact all they do. So yes, they have the right to complain about anything real or imagined.

In theory, I get what you're saying.

The reality is though that with a two-party system, there are only two to choose from that will make the difference.
My point was those who keep whining non-stop about Trump, and thinking that their vote against him shouldn't go to Harris. Especially in this election when it's going to be neck and neck, down to the last vote. You get the government you deserve if you don't vote against one or the other of these two candidates.

I have a legitimate right not to listen to your complaints if you don't vote for either Trump or Harris.

I didn't say you had to listen, you're the one telling me that I have no reason to complain not the other way around. MAGAs really seem to have issues with free speech.

I don't deserve either of their proposed governments, so I'm voting against both.

If Trump wins, I'll exercise the right not to listen to you bitch about him.

You don't really listen to any complaints about Trump in the first place, so it's not much of a loss.

Free speech my ass. She's repeatedly said foreigners can't comment on American politics, even though she comments on other country's affairs.

At one point she even claimed we don't have the legal right to post about US politics.

She flounced from the forum and now returns and orders people about on who can post what.

Weird.

If you aren't voting for Trump or Harris, you're likely to be accused of enabling one or the other, depending on who you're talking to. It's partially how the illusion is maintained that only the Big Two matter.

Happens every election cycle. But I haven't voted for the Main Party since G. W.'s first run.

How can we miss your complaints about Trump? You're consumed. If you equally gave it to Harris, I'd notice, but how can I when you don't?

Allan, why do you bother? Do you really think I don't know you've been trolling me since I came back to the forum? I have the callouts to prove it. Poor poor Allan, Trix is picking on him. LOLOLOL Have you no self-awareness at all? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Well Trump is a never ending source for criticism, yes. It must suck to have to keep making excuses for someone who worked so hard against the Republic and who wants to use the military against political opponents and punish the media and companies if they don't say nice things about him.

Because of your electoral system it only matters who you vote for depending on where you live. A voter in Colorado, Alabama, California or Mississippi can cast a protest vote knowing full well it won't matter in the least to the outcome.

Broken record, Ikari... It's all you seem to have left. Repeating yourself. It's not like you haven't written the same thing at least twenty times in the last week or so.

Get used to it. In general, I mean.

Your candidate is basically an un-American lop of shit.
