    If that’s true, then you’re in the same boat as us, only you’re holding the gun to your own head instead of having it held by someone else, and talking about what a principled stand pulling the trigger is going to be.

      This imaginary gun is being held by the duopoly against the populace every four years, just so that the status quo can continue.

        Fact that you call it imaginary continues to spell out for us your position of privilege.

        You are no ally of the oppressed. You are an appropriator of our language to buy your own feelings of moral superiority.
