It's election day here in the US which means I would typically be posting a paean to voting and exercising your civil rights no matter who you vote for. Except I cannot do that this year b/c democracy has become a partisan issue.
There is no civic virtue in voting for those who would are actively seeking to repress the right to vote. There is no virtue in ignoring election laws or conspiracy-mongering. You can either vote for a functioning democracy or stay home.

Vote like someone you love depends on it. Because somewhere somebody a person loves life does depend on it. You might not know that person but they exist. Their life has value, just as much as yours.
The choice is between a party that is actively stoking terror and openly blaming minorities, immigrants, LBGTQIA+ for our problems and those who want them to be able to live their lives on their own terms. Don't let their lives have less meaning bc you might favor 2% decrease in your taxes.
