I understand the sentiment but I’d be a fan of having an adult age across the board.
If you can be drafted, you should be able to drink, buy guns, rent cars, vote, etc. That should all be at the same age, whatever that age is.

“I’ve tasted Savor’s products, and I couldn’t believe I wasn’t eating real butter. It tastes really good—like the real thing, because chemically it is.” Bill Gates recently wrote in his blog post.
Comments like yours have a real “I will not eat those CHEMICALS” vibe to it. People like you are a bit hilarious seeing as it’s all chemicals.
And here I thought it had something to do with treating people a certain way because of the color of their skin. /shrug.
Call it whatever you want but it’s morally disgusting to treat anyone a particular way due to immutable traits.
Ah. Just saw the .ml. Good luck with the racism.
Gotchya.
For a second there I thought they were using it to say they’d take all of someone’s money based on the color of their skin as well as associating all white people with the KKK.
Can you expand on what kkkrakkker means?
Trump understands FPTP systems better than many here it seems.
Yeah I don’t want to just see content from people I agree with. Guess I’m crazy.
Linkerbaan logic:
3rd parties who are lucky to get 5% of the vote can win.
Biden, who won against Trump last time cannot win.
Lol
I’m glad we finally got to you admitting 3rd parties won’t win.
Thanks.
He is one of two possibilities.
And you’re not going to bet because you know it too.
And now we know you’re not ignorant to this fact. You’re encouraging 3rs party votes knowing very well they will not win.
I’m sitting here trying to convince you that FPTP results in a two party system. I’m betting on the two parties.
YOU are the one imagining that can change by simply voting 3rd party.
So, you down for a bet or what?
The system exists as it is…. I don’t know any other way to say this. FPTP has a spoiler problem that you can’t wish away.
I’m not going to vote for a candidate that’s going to get maybe 2-5% of the vote.
I would like to bet you $1000 that either the Dem or Rep candidate will win. If anyone BUT those two win, I would pay you.
If you ACTUALLY believed anyone else will win, you’d take me up on it. What do you say?
The presidential vote isn’t where we fix the voting system. We have to work in the system we have. It’s just reality.
My assessment of you hasn’t changed - you’re either completely ignorant or want Biden voters to change to third party to help Trump.
Every interaction with you has a similar quality. I’m never sure if you’re just this stupid or if you know exactly what you’re doing.
You’ve already got one response to this which is correct. I want to add to it to help explain how FPTP voting systems result in a 2 party system and simply voting for another party does not solve the issue.
But first you’re either aware of the problem and want to encourage people to vote third party while pretending not to know how the system works or you’re actually just ignorant to the issue.
I don’t normally like video links in discussions like this but this one is especially good and is only 6.5 mins.
How surprising. A comment meant to discourage voting.
There is absolutely an issue with first past the post voting systems. And frankly I think you know what the problems are.
Is that a 3rd option in a first past the post system?
Hmmmm… what could be the issue there I wonder.
If it’s chemically the same as butter, should we call it butter or something else?
