    Vote for 100% hitler or 90% hitler, or don’t vote and actually get double hitler. What a system 'murica has.

      The first election I voted in was a vote for the ‘lesser evil’. It’s been that way since. Maybe we could try, idk, a non-evil candidate? The evil has somehow grown steadily every time we’ve elected a ‘lesser evil’. Maybe there is something better we could do than legitimize evil. I’m not saying not vote, but clearly we need a rework of this whole thing.

        Need to get to get the money out of politics. Theres so much corruption finding the starting point is dounting but I think a good start is heavy participation in getting rid of our worst senators and maybe making a real chance at undoing the damage of all the legalized bribery. Then maybe, just maybe, we can start to make real change happen.
