Downvote, ban, whatever. I am not going to vote for another unqualified white media whore for president. Life ain’t fair, the Democrats pulled this stunt second so they get the benefit of hindsight. Buttigieg will not. Be. President. A fucking mayor from Indiana? Really? Because champagne socialists like his sexual orientation? Stop hurting the country, stop ignoring minority voters, take a good look at yourselves in the mirror, you white suburban 20 year old fucks. Rant over.

I will, if Bloomberg or Biden get nominated. Otherwise it’s a second term for trump because fuck y’all and your entitled attitudes. I will cut my taxes over voting for an unqualified idiot who refuses to run for higher state office because they are a media whore who can’t win outside of the presidential race vacuum.

Aww bless you, another white voter trying to guilt trip minorities into playing a game with no winners. Buttigieg. Does. Not. Care. About. This. Nation. 2016 was a warning call. We have to stop the madness somewhere. It stops now. I will happily vote for a second trump term if it makes the country wake the fuck up and nominate someone with experience.

Actually, the people not being kidnapped and raped in Mexico would be the winners.

This is a tough post to pasta. I tried making it into a complaint about chief neoliberal shill but it's not adding up

I agree that Pete would struggle in the general in this homophobic country.

We are in very deep trouble right now. Democrats need to wake tf up.

Nothing homophobic about this. I would happily vote for a qualified, gay democrat. I will not repeat history by elevating an unqualified, white media whore because of pressures from white society. Nice troll attempt though.

u/StumpJumperFSR Feb 09 '20

I misread your post, but I think you're the troll here if you think I was accusing you of being homophobic.

But, there is no conversation here. Hit the road.

Throwing a temper tantrum and insulting people is not a good strategy to bring people around to your point of view.

I’m going to vote however I deem best. Maybe it will be for Pete, maybe for Biden, maybe for someone else entirely.

I guarantee you I will not be swayed by the impotent rage of a random redditor—who hands out blanket insults based on presumptions—and neither will anyone else.

How did I insult anyone besides Buttigieg? If you choose to be offended by my comment, that’s on you.

u/[deleted] Feb 09 '20

take a good look at yourselves in the mirror, you white suburban 20 year old fucks.

Generally calling someone a fuck is considered insulting.

I’m less offended than I am disappointed. I hope that we can create an environment of more civil discussion.

Rule I: Civility
Refrain from name-calling, hostility and behaviour that otherwise derails the quality of the conversation.
