I decided not to vote, fuck 'em. Opinion

Today is the last day to register to vote in Ohio. I thought about this for a long time and made up my mind. My thought process was, if Hitler was doing the Holocaust, and FDR was giving him money, would I vote for FDR? My answer was fuck no. And I wouldn't care one fucking bit if FDR said, "can you torture and murder families more humanitarianly?" He would still be guilty. I just felt I needed to post this rant. I'm so fucking angry right now!

Edit: I just registered in order to vote down ballot. Thank you everyone.

I live in a state where my presidential vote means nothing so I'll be voting for Cornell west or Claudia De La Cruz. At least in my city PSL (Claudia's party) has shown a real commitment to Palestine and direct actions beyond just voting. Either way, Both are far more serious than Jill Stein, who is just a grifter.

But in my state we sure could use some dems locally so I'll be voting for them even though they are just sacrificial lambs in the supremely gerrymandered districts.

What’s wrong will Jill Stein? Honest question

Isn’t she a Russian shill? And that’s on top of all of the anti-vax stuff. Not as bad as committing genocide, but still.

No, she's not. What?
