I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    “We don’t need you! We never needed you! Every one of you is a paid Russian actor! We will win with Chaney and Romney!”

    “GOD PLEASE WE NEEDED YOU! WHY DIDN’T YOU TRUST US?! WE CHASED AFTER THE REPUBLICANS TO MAKE YOU LOVE US!”

      The more I think about it, the more this sort of gaslighting reminds me of Eve Online shenanigans. Which is fair, after all, users like Jibrish moderate r/eve like they do r/conservative.

        Part of me wishes I could have a computer good enough to run Eve, but I don’t think I could handle the game and community lore in one whole thing.

        I’ve spent 2200 hours in a game with next to zero good updates in 9 years, my brain can handle focusing on stupid bullshit.

        But man Eve seems… Weird. In a good and bad way.
