I don't recall mentioning how I voted, so that's a wild assumption.

And if the standard is that you're not allowed to criticize an economic system unless you've completely removed yourself from modern society, then nobody is allowed to criticize anything. I assume you didn't mine the silica, manufacture the chips, build the device, or construct the network you're using to post this comment.

Participating in a system because it's the system we currently live in isn't the same thing as endorsing every consequence of that system.

Let me know when you're living off the land detached from society completely. I'll make sure to send you a post card.
