Only a little less than a third voted for it! Slightly less voted against, and significantly more just couldn't be bothered!

America is a burning house with three people inside, the first is trying to fight the fire, the second is pouring gasoline everywhere, the third is sitting on the couch watching television.

IE: "I'm okay with however this goes."

They're as culpable as the ones who voted for it. I know it confuses people that I'm actively angrier at them, at least the people who voted for it were more honest about their awful opinions. The ones that didn't vote try to pretend they have the moral high ground of "I didn't vote for this" or the bullshit excuse of "I just don't pay attention to politics"

I'm 100% with you there. It's of vital importance to make your voice heard, and voting is one of the simplest ways to do that.

I think that's why I'm so angry at that crowd. They're one of the biggest voices of "People should rise up" but I'd never want one having my back. If they couldn't do the the very basic fucking easiest thing then what makes me think they'd actually do anything when shit actually gets hard.

Oh I have so many words for the "Only moral abortion is my abortion" crowd but they're the assholes that do go out and vote. Honestly, Republicans, because if that party didn't have double standards they would have no standards at all.

My part on the "I'm okay with however this goes" is me calling out the crowd that didn't bother to vote, just sitting there saying their bullshit excuses of why they don't vote then try to say they have some moral high ground when their not voting is them in fact telling the country they are in fact perfectly fine with however things go.

It's definitely important to note the people who didn't vote.

They were completely OK with trump, so long as they maintain their moral righteousness like schoolchildren.
