Nah it’s fine, see I don’t live in a swing-state, so nobody cares about my vote at all!
Comment on Being an already decided voter in a swing state is swell

I find it kind of reassuring that at least our votes actually mean something to someone and the entire process isn’t completely rigged, otherwise no one would fucking bother.

That’s a very low bar ><
Also because of first past the post, most people’s votes don’t in fact matter. So personally I like to aim a bit higher.

You know, I have to say you’re right.
At this point, unless you have been living under a giant rock, there are simple, hard facts you can’t possibly not know about Donald Trump that should be unacceptable to anyone regardless of political leanings. It’s simply impossible to ignore them.
Therefore logic dictates that whoever votes for Trump today must agree with the Nazi stuff, the Trump Purge, shooting protesters in the legs, hanging vice-presidents or locking up former speakers of the house. I mean LITERALLY agree - because he LITERALLY said those things. Even MAGA people shouldn’t agree with those things: making America great again implies not destroying America!
Meaning roughly half of this country agrees with those things. If that’s not fucked up to the n-th degree, I don’t know what is.

far right parties are the biggest in most european countries and it still doesn’t come anywhere close to how much it must suck to live in america. Who you vote for is nobody’s business, and this kind of spam is insane.

I’m not sure how many OP gets in a week but I get so. many. of these stupid messages. It’s usually about 3-6 a week. It pisses me off every time I get them. Luckily I have a message filter set up with just bare bones rules to filter out anything that contains “Trump” and “President” and that’s been working great. But the fact that I even get those messages is absurd to me. I’ve blocked at the bare minimum, probably about 300 of those numbers so far. It only keeps rising every week when I decide to look through my junk SMS

That’s insane. The only message we get here is per mail, with information on where to vote and your voting card thingy. There might be some people near stores giving out flyers with information about their party, that’s about it.
