Great motivation to vote. They might have a shitty idea of what competent leadership looks like, but at least Republicans fight for their rights when they think someone is trying to take them away.
Keep pretending that voting doesn’t matter and it’ll eventually come true, and much sooner than you can imagine. People have literally died by the millions to achieve the democracy we take for granted. But it’s not granted, it’s earned by societies who remain vigilant and actively defend it.
Everyone:
No shit.
Right?
So, like, do something then??
Then vote.
Everyone:
Do you know how hard Republicans make it to vote in the districts that matter? Your glib comment suggests you don’t.

Who is doing this? Certainly not me. Thanks for the lecture though.
