Its the parts fault if they cant get an easy vote, not the voter's

Ultimately, yes that's the case. It's the candidates job to attract voters.

And that's great, that's what I do in the primaries. I'm not about to risk a Trump presidency just to place a vote for a 3rd party that I probably also don't actually like. Just plug the nose and stop the larger threat.

Oh I know. I live in a swing state, so I have to plug my nose and vote.

Whatever helps you sleep at night if Trump gets elected.

He has even said he is slowing down and can't debate as well as used to. This doesn't technically disqualify him, but it should be a huge red flag that he isn't and wasn't the best candidate. That's the real problem.

This vote is far too important to protest vote. Especially now that I live in a swing state.

Technically I'm voting for Biden, in reality I'm voting against Trump. I really wish I had a better option...

Undecided Latino voters specifically according to the article. I don't think that should be too surprising based on the lies Trump was spewing about illegal immigration.

Airlines have a mandatory retirement age of 65. I could support that for politicians and judges.

People have a terrible understanding of orbital mechanics and apparent weightlessness. It's not like gravity just stops affecting you after you get out of the atmosphere. Getting out of the atmosphere is the easy part of getting to orbit. Going sideways fast enough is the hard part.

You can get mad at Amazon, but really it's the Supreme Court you should be mad at. Amazon is going to take advantage of whatever it thinks will make them more money. The government is the thing that is supposed to keep them in check.

Edit: A lot of people seem to be reading something different from what I wrote. I didn't say you shouldn't be mad at Amazon, or that Amazon isn't at fault for their own actions. What I did say is that you should expect this type of behavior from a business and should expect our government to do a better job at keeping this behavior in check.

On Reddit I remember getting called a "space Karen" for pointing this out in a discussion about Starlink. Elon Musk fanboys are some of the worst. Second only to Q fanboys.
