Seriously?
That's kind of the whole fucking point of democracy, you keep voting. Forever. There is no "one last vote." If you don't like voting, don't vote. But don't complain about the winners and losers then, as you did absolutely fuck all
But... I didn't get the result I wanted last time. It kind of seems like the whole system is made of corporate crooks. If I threaten to not vote at all until they stop being crooked, surely they'll be impacted by that, and all of a sudden there'll be candidates worth voting for. By magic.
Just you wait. You'll see. Any day now.
>don't complain
stop me
The best part about that is I don't have to. I just get to ask how you helped prevent things from getting worse
That's not going to stop me.
That's not the positive point you think you're making..
