Today I once again voted for the 'lesser evil'. Every 4 years I have to do that. I'm tired. First round of voting I actually found a candidate I really liked, someone I would actually celebrate if they won but of course the rest of the country is not looking for the best candidate, they only care about electing the worst candidate for ‘the other side’. So here I am, waiting for the results knowing that if the candidate I picked wins I won’t be happy, just relieved and if the other candidate wins, I need to fear for the future of our country. I looked for an offmychest community but couldnt find it, I read the rules and I think politics is allowed here? Though really, Im not here to discuss politics, just lament the current state of affairs.

    if the candidate I picked wins I won’t be happy, just relieved Evolution isn’t immediate: we would have to go to a few ‘acceptable’ outcomes if that’s the only way to push the window over to better choice down the line. People who don’t get that may want to brush up on how evolution works to fix bad systems; and also understand how primates evolved from whales, or something.
