Voting is really fucking lame. And not just the concept of voting, which is basically just throwing a penny in a fountain and making a wish, except you can only wish for methods of steering a polity, but the actual act of voting is fucking stupid.
Imagine drawing out the process of tossing a penny in a fountain to the point where it takes forever, you have to stand in line with a bunch of drones, flip through a bunch of pages with the names of faggots you've never met and will never meet, deal with the smelly old volunteers running the process, taking time off important shit you need to actually get done, and then being handed a good boy sticker at the end of the process like a kindergartner who didn't talk during naptime.
And after all that, it has zero effect on policy anyway.
The best type of government is one where everything runs fine and you don't have to waste time on a constant churn of politicians who will never be statesmen, and the only time you need to care about the regime is when they fuck up the country so bad you just shoot them, and that's the only time you ever need to "vote".
