Ok, I’ve pushed it around my skull for a while and I’ve decided I don’t care.
I’m so tired of people telling me I have to excersize my quote god given right unquote to vote. My other favorite line is that if I don’t vote, I don’t have the right to complain about things.
Excuse me?
#1 This will be tough for some people to read, but oh well: there is no “god.” Since there is no god, it’s hard for him to hand out rights. Our (supposedly) inalienable rights are ink on paper that men with wigs and robes grant and take away on corporate inspired whims. (Yes, even in the USA our so-called inalienable rights can be taken away.)
#2 People died for my right to complain about things even though I didn’t vote this year. This right is called freedom of speech. That’s one of the wonderful things about this country. Do you know what the best part is? You also have the right to not listen.
Besides, see what happens when everyone votes?
