    ha. well I’m not evil, I care, and I haven’t lifted a finger. why? cause the way it works here is money. if u want to do something, no matter how good or evil, you need a lot of money…

        yep. in every single election, not just presidential ones.

        the richest most convincing liar usually wins and my vote doesn’t really matter… but it’s all I can do so 🤷‍♂️

          They were saying that, if you at least voted, you’ve lifted a finger.

          I feel you though. Being a lone voice in a county that went like 93% Trump, it definitely feels like my vote doesn’t matter. Hell, our mayor at the time was caught drunk driving with his niece in the car after a fundraiser, told the cop ‘do you know who i am’ and threatened his job, and he STILL won by a lot.

          Far more than lifting a finger. That alone puts you in the non-evil third of our population.

          You can protest, and you have access to weapons thanks to 2A. Americans can do much more than people in other countries.

          The richest liars want you to think that you can only vote and then present you with the choices they have vetted to maintain the oligarchy.
