Everyone is free to vote however they choose. I don't agree with abstaining when there is one party that already holds two thirds of Congress that actively goes out of their way to hurt a large amount of people personally. Trump, for example, is open to nominating someone from Missouri that wants to overturn Roe v Wade (abortion). That same person is likely against LGBT rights (even if Trump is probably largely ambivalent on this). Morally, I know I couldn't myself knowing how this could personally hurt others. Minorities have been settling for years.
Well I'm not speaking from my personal views but rather validating others'. I will be voting Hillary.
But there's also a lot of dirt on Hillary, if people don't want her in office they should not be obliged to vote for her.
I envision Bernie Sanders voters as a bunch of 18-24 white Tumblr gays and lesbians who live with their parents and make plans for social equality and justice over a cup of Starbucks soy latte.
The most cringeworthy thing in this whole ellection is Bernie Bros saying "I will NEVER vote for Hillary, I rather take my chances with Trump!!!!!!"
That's the peak of white privilege, because you're simply ignoring the fact that a Trump presidency will literally make the lives of minorities worse because you're buthurt that your "revolution didn't quite take off and your lifetime leader of a couple of months didn't win... But you're a white straight man so lolz, right?

But at the same time, when people do mass vote third party or abstain, you get in situations like Bush v Gore where a Nader siphons off votes from Gore and helped cause one of the worst Presidencies in American history with Bush. The Iraq war likely wouldn't have happened with Gore (not excusing Gore's own mistakes btw here). I'm not saying how people should vote, but rather just see what has happened in the past and how those consequences have hurt others? It's just something worth thinking about before anyone makes their decision.

Also young straight white male reddit users who watch Illuminati government conspiracy theory videos on youtube and **** their pants every time Bernie says the word "revolution"
lolz, right?
