I had no idea my attitude could magically make party elites care about this basic constitutional right! Thanks so so much for setting me straight.

Refusing to criticize politicians because they wear the tie color you like is the least effective thing you can possibly do.

I say it's nihilism to ignore this fact and vote these same people into office again and again.

Statements of fact are now “nihilism”, I guess
You seem to be blaming the victim.
