@BarbellFi for you to attempt this lie, you must have no idea what engineers at Meta actually make (bless your heart), especially with stock 7x’ing in recent years
@tautologer take the very large value in people not dying and divide it by very low chance that the 8 billion person referendum comes down to your vote

@waitbutwhy “one vote doesn’t matter” should be the central red argument. yes, you want to save the blues, but the die has already been cast. western liberals largely conditioned to have narcissistic delusion about the power of one vote
@justalexoki you should do what you can, but:
you can’t do anything. you have one vote in 8B. the die has aleady been cast by the time you vote. the blues are already cooked
