An American put themselves into a known, violent war-zone and we're supposed to give a fuck that they got shot? Sounds like a Darwin award candidate.

Because I don't engage with delusional bullshit. Your 'strategy' of not voting for Harris won't change the fact that either the Democrat or the Republican will win and that you're helping the Republican win. You might as well go piss directly into a fan.

Yes - a whole bunch of people voted for the 3rd party or for Trump because, Oh My Fucking God - It's a Clinton! We should totally repeat that disaster by withholding votes from the only other person who can possibly win and let Trump get elected again. Brilliant!

Goodbye... you're just dishing bullshit and I have better uses of my time.

The Democrat or the Republican is going to be the next POTUS regardless of whatever fantasy you have going on in your head... which of those two will do the least harm to your cause this time around? Absolutely, we need to change the FPTP election system so that we're not forced into this situation, but it is the situation and you're going to have to face that reality.

You are really, really bad at reading comprehension and only slightly good at stirring the shit. I have consistently said we should increase the size of the lowest tax bracket so that everyone low pay gets to pay lower taxes.

Are you going to continue to try to make hay out of someone having a guaranteed pay of $2/hr? What is your end-game here?

Yes, it sounds like we are. Unfortunately, you saw how difficult that was to get aligned on something so simple. Yet, until everyone is aligned on that, the excuse making will continue. Those who know and are racist are provided free cover and distraction. Those who don't know don't know who to believe, so they stick with what they think they know.

You're hell-bent on trying to change what I've said and you can quit that shit already...

• first and foremost - get rid of tips
• second - pay a living wage
• raise the bottom tax bracket substantially
• fine the fuck out of tax cheats
• get rid of the urban legend that a significant number of folks getting tipped are getting rich on it

So fucking report them to the IRS to make them pay their taxes. You're talking about tax fraud right now. You're also talking about the exception and not the rule. Most tipped employees have a guaranteed wage of around $2/hr and don't end up making anywhere near a living wage. Quit trying to fuck over the tipped workers and instead go after the corporate bosses and the billionaires. They're the problem... not your tax fraud buddy sitting next to you working for tips.

And you think Trump isn't going to cater to Bibi? Voting for Trump won't fix the problem. Not voting for Harris is the equivalent of voting for Trump. You're going to get fucked either way... the question is who do you want to do it and which will leave you worse off.

What’s the use of having a vote if politicians don’t have to earn it?

Yes, we need to change the voting system because it's difficult to get anything even close to what we want with the existing system. However, we have the system we have for this election so your only actual choice for this election is to continue to vote for the lesser of the two evils. What you're proposing is nihilistic. That's fine if that is how you feel, but be transparent and say that instead.

I provided both answers... I love how you're here to defend the rich.

salaried employees knew that tipped employees didn’t pay taxes on everything they got and would work against them when negotiating to renew their collective agreement instead of joining hands and fighting against the employer.

So the salaried employees were the rich in this case. Fucking petty-ass losers. So worried that a peon might get paid that they had to fuck themselves in the process.

Ok, Trumper...

Just keep on stumping for Trump. You've revealed your true colors.

No, I just want you to know that Trump is worse than Harris. Think of it this way... if you knew that Harris was going to rape you and Trump was going to both beat and rape you, then which would you choose? You don't get to choose if you get raped. Get that stupid fantasy out of your head. That part is going to happen. So... which will it be? Harris or Trump?

Yes... you might (not sure if I posted it or not) find the binary that either the Democrat or the Republican will get elected. Quit being obtuse and fixating on the names. All of the other parties combined couldn't get enough votes to win this election. FPTP is awful AND it is what we have right now. You can mentally masturbate all you want, but it won't change that the Democrat or Republican will get elected.

Maybe we'll get lucky and Trump will have an aneurism and we can quit wasting public time and money on that piece of shit. However, whoever takes his place will be just as awful because that is what we have for the GQP these days.

I will gladly work with you to try to get RCV enacted so that I can vote third party without throwing my vote away. Until that is in place, though, you and I both have to choose between Harris or Trump at the moment. Again, even if the names change, you and I have to choose either the Democrat or the Republican. Time for you to face reality.

There’s a big difference between saying “a majority of his supporters are racist” and “their core is 100% racism.”

Core != All ; "their core" == "a majority of his supporters" -- This inherently allows for the dimwits that are so fucking stupid that they support him and his racism even though they are black as well as any other what aboutism you'd like to conjure up.

There are low-income people who constantly vote against their own best interests and ensure they will stay poor. It happens. There are stupid people in the world. By gutting education, Tump and his lackeys seek to make even more stupid people to lead around by the nose.

We can start having the other conversations when we can nail down that it is an absolute truth that Trump and his core are racist.

What are you feeling ashamed of? What shame do you feel I am trying to cast on you?

Who, besides Harris or Trump do you feel might get elected POTUS this election cycle?

I'm not shaming anyone... just stating reality. Harris or Trump will become POTUS. Nobody else running has a snowball's chance in hell of winning the election.

Now that you're tuned in to reality... would you rather POTUS is Trump or Harris? I don't like it and you don't like it, but you don't get any other choice.

I'm not mixing anything. I am very consistently advocating for:

• Eliminate tipping entirely
• Pay people a living wage
• Make the bottom tax bracket quite large
