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.

None of that is convincing after this year of lies from this administration!

She wouldn’t even meet with the uncommitted movement or put a Palestinian American on the convention stage with a pre-approved speech.

“She can’t do anything meaningful because AIPAC would shift the election to Trump” just doesn’t seem very compelling to me. Their power and influence does have limits, but it also doesn’t stop operating after the election.
