How?
acknowledge the genocide would have continued under either party, regardless. Don't educate yourself that no country holds sway over another - it's working so well with Russia, NK, Iran, Cuba, etc. and that no one person flips a country's policies on a dime.
latch on to one statement that one candidate said in a political setting that triggers an issue you think you can signal, so you can turf over your own personal biases about that candidate
ignore the proven track record of revenge, pettiness, narcissism of the other candidate. I'm gonna leave out any attempts at insurrection, association with pedophiles, corscion, intimidation and gross negligence in his business and personal interests
either sit it out your vote, or vote in protest because you didn't prefer either candidate and the parties owe it to you, to present you with blatantly palatable choices, never mind that one is obviously going to destroy the country
act surprised that a candidate you didn't want rises to the highest office in the land, then proceed to double down on the above when everything cones crashing doen around you.
Do everything except 1)
That's how.
No country holds sway over another - that's gotta be most moronic ape shit i have red in a long time so thanks.
I hope you are a U.S. citizen
I’ve never read anything that’s so convoluted and yet so stupid at the same time. Congrats!
Maybe I'm just drunk but it seems like you commented on the wrong post
