      This right here.

      It pisses me off to no end how many people skip the primaries and then bitch about the candidate…

        It does upset me that our voting system is so obtuse; but not as much as it upsets me that people are so willfully ignorant.

        A lot of posters here are actively hostile to the suggestion that better turnout in the Democratic primaries will lead to better candidates.

          A lot of posters here are specifically ignorant of what national politics entails. They’ve got a lot of idealism and cynicism but not a lot of experience. Which is always the case. Boring reality is the opposite of clickbait.
