With all due respect, fuck off. Please stop telling me that I'm privileged and don't care about people's lives because I don't want to vote for Joe Biden in a state where my vote doesn't matter. Do you think Donald Trump came out of nowhere? Do you think things were hunky dory for all of the people you keep using as a cudgel against me four years ago? I've put a lot of thought into my decision and agonized over what to do way more than I probably should have. What happens in 4 years if Biden gets elected? You don't think things will shift further to the right? You don't think the Republicans will run an even more dangerous candidate like Tom Cotton or Josh Hawley (who are both legitimate fascists and unlike Trump they are actually competent, which is an extremely dangerous combination). I'm not sure why you think I should be taking orders from Bernie Sanders. I donated, volunteered, and voted for him because I back his policies. I don't idolize or take orders from him or any other politician. This is not a cult of personality. These people work for us and we need to hold them accountable. For somebody your age, you seem extremely naive. Now are we done here or do you want to continue trying to bully me into voting for Biden? Here's a tip: you're not going to succeed in that venture.
