    Also:

    We live in a two-party system, and unfortunately, you must choose based on a few important issues that resonate with you.

    No, you must choose based on ALL THE ISSUES. People voting based on whatever wedge issue they were brainwashed to be afraid of is what is driving polarization.

      It’s like they don’t think past what the person says.

      Lots of black men didn’t vote for Kamala because she called herself “top cop” at one point, despite never having been negatively influenced by her or any of her policies at all.

      Meanwhile, Fuckface 45 got their friends and family killed by bungling COVID (dismantling the pandemic response teams, because they were implemented by Obama), and he’s been a perpetual racist. Those issues aren’t issues, somehow.
