Yes, the 2020 election was rigged. It was stolen. It was. Yes. No, it was stolen. Right. And I want to thank you for standing up for that, continues the questioner, adding:
And thats why when when when the 2022 elections came around, I told all of my friends and family, I said, theres only one way to stop this woke Democrat mafia, and that is to boycott these elections because theyre never going to hear us if we dont really stop from participating in their lives. Its a farce. Its a farce. And why should we participate? You said it yourself. Why should we participate?
No, no, no, Kirk said. Let me tell you why. So I love the energy. You buttered me up perfectly, right? But I got to disagree. It is not rational to stop engaging in the civic process that decides who is in charge.
But, its rigged! the questioner yells.
Hold on. Just one second, even if it is rigged. Okay. Even if it is rigged, going through a tradition of voting at least opens an opportunity, a chance, a micron that you actually might still be able to have representative government. What you are doing, respectfully, is a guarantee that youll never have a voice, Kirk concludes.

(1,154 posts)The attitude expressed by the "supporter" is gonna keep some of them home on election day. There is another factor, Covid. The counties that vote republican have a death rate far higher than Blue counties, and that will continue. The numbers are in our favor, and THAT will continue.

(310 posts)Yes, elections are rigged. The only way to combat that is to vote for the person who you don't want to win. The GOP voter cannot lose with this clever strategy.

He said that if I voted for Hillary, there would be a crook in the WH.
