    Hey, I fucking hate this just as much as you do. I’ve voted and participated against these policies at every step of the way, but I am not wealthy or politically powerful, I live in a state where my vote is diluted at the national level (California, one of the states with the highest citizen to representative ratios), and when I try to explain these consequences and dangers, all I get in return is apathy.

    Edit: typo fixes

      I stopped talking to most people I knew because getting “i don’t do politics” as a dead-end to every response is just disheartening.
