The libs got to use to not having to back up their claims through a confirmation bias from their echo chamber.
I'm not defending the behavior of Democratic Party supporters, but can you recognize the hypocrisy in your behavior just now?
I am not using libs as a derogatory term. Liberals vs conservatives. Left vs right. I think the division is pretty clear.
I absolutely don't mean to come across talking down to you :)
This election I really saw the "liberal media" that everyone always talks about. Clinton had such a history that it made it clear as day. "Super predators", Jewish slurs, all the emails, Hillary's treatment of women after Bill's affairs, etc, etc.
Look at the NYTimes front pages during the election.
That is perfectly logical in a 2 (effectively) candidate election
> so that makes it OK
How? This is your interpretation.
If you have a choice of two, you must pick one. You have to weight up the options. choosing one doesn't automatically mean endorsing it as the post possible choice, but just the better of the given options.
If done properly then abstention is a perfectly valid alternative to not voting at all, because your vote means it's more difficult for the parties to obtain a majority. If you don't vote then (ideally) you have no effect on the numbers. Whether this is how the US system works, I don't know, hence the ideally.
