The funniest thing about the last couple days of my timeline is that I have not once told anyone not to vote. I haven’t even said whether *I personally* will or will not vote.
And yet a lot of people are furiously convinced I’ve been lobbying against voting because I made factually correct observations about the electoral process.
In other words, the process indicts itself.
Friends, if a discussion about how voting works sounds like advocacy against voting, then the problem is with voting, not with the discussion.
