      And here is what you do not understand. The reason for voting for a candidate isn’t to do any favors for the candidate. It is to do yourself a favor. If you don’t vote for the best candidate because they didn’t “earn” it that is incredibly stupid., Because you are not “punishing” that person – you are primarily punishing your own self. Harris is going to be just fine. You are going to be fucked in so many different ways.

        I voted for Harris. Not everyone is like me.

        I accept the reality that votes must be earned. You seem to be under the impression that being second worst is sufficient to win.

        The last election just showed you were wrong.

          You seem to be under the impression that people who voted for Harris did so in order to Kamala Harris a f*cking personal favor. None of us who voted for her did so as a favor. We all voted for Harris to do ourselves and the country a favor. You’re gonna be screwed by Donald Trainwreck just as much as everyone else. Probably more them me in fact.

            You will never get it. If you don’t earn people’s votes, they stay home.

            You just saw it happen.
