      Let me spell it out for you: I voted. I vote. I will vote. No, I didn’t say I did, you just assumed I didn’t and went ape shit about it. Despite the added context in the rest of my post, and despite me asking you to consider that you might be missing something.

      See, if you would’ve just said this all in the beginning we could’ve avoided all this. Because it sounded to me - and to any other rational person reading your post - that you were making excuses for not voting. That’s why I bolded the text “No, I didn’t say I did.” You did not say you voted, so how am I supposed to know you did? Am I supposed to read your mind?

      Still, it seems a bit like you’re still not understanding how important it actually is, so I refuse to apologize. I stand by every word, and I use this as my rationale:

      I also don’t tell others to vote or not vote. That’s completely up to them and it is not a goddamn reflection of their character.

      When one of the candidates is a fascist who’s going to hurt people and destroy democracy, then not voting against them kinda is a reflection on your character. It shows you don’t care enough about other people.

      Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds. You are a goddamn shit stain on society.

      I like how I’m the fascist, when I’m the one actually doing something to try and stop fascists and not the one making excuses for those who didn’t
