It’s not a choice, it’s coercion.

Math is coercion, I guess.

"Being practical" and "harm reduction" seem to also be coersion, too.

If my heart had its way, I'd be voting Peace and Freedom Party. But it doesn't, so I'll be voting for Joe Biden. And that is that.

Humour and logic, keep your comments coming! Lately it felt like Lemmy was overrun by people arguing in bad faith.

Lemmy was setup by tankies. It's like shooting fish in a barrel if you're looking for morons to argue with on the internet. Kinda fun to dunk on them. Kinda lame to see them whine incessantly.
