I was more concerned with the state and city policies but filled out the politician ballot anyway.

    I hated them all. They’re all “businessmen” or “entrepreneurs” of Bidenists (I live in a blue state). For me, “harm reduction” means you’re doing SOMETHING to mitigate the harm. Democrats don’t do anything and I don’t consider inaction harm reduction. But inaction will still give me a little breathing room compared to conservatives rushing to kill everyone

    It’s the equivalent of standing at the front of titanic as it sinks. I’m waiting for the inevitable, but at least I won’t have to confront it for a little bit longer.

      I hear that but don't exactly follow the analogy of voting for something you hate with standing around and waiting.

      To me it's closer to someone kidnapping you with a gun asking you if you want to be shot in the face today or tomorrow. It's perfectly rational to choose tomorrow. But plenty of folks, myself included, would sooner just spit in their face than make that kind of "choice".

          Sure if you pick it apart to break the analogy. I agree with choosing tomorrow. Most people would also try and get on a liferaft over just standing on the Titanic watching it sink (in reference to the analogy I was responding to).
