I do think they have a point: there’s not many other engines I can think of that are quite as ‘tangible’ as theirs. Every object has its physical place in the world and can be picked up, manipulated,… in a way that’s unlike other engines where the world just feels more static.

I dab too, there are dozens of us!

We have this in Europe for new cars, and the issue everyone expects is that cars are terrible at accurately knowing the speed limit. Current cars often can already show what they think the speed limit is, but it’s often inaccurate due to missing a sign or road crossing, or any other software/image recognition problems. Which means you’re bound to get false positives, causing drivers to turn off the warnings each time.

On the other hand, those coalition talks can take months or longer with the old government continuing to run things for sometimes over a year after the elections. Looking at you, Belgium

I’m just an outsider, but it seems to me that in 2016, many people on the left/anarchist /socialist/liberal whatever weren’t enthusiastic about Clinton and didn’t vote or voted third party. This led to Trump winning and subsequently nominate enough Supreme Court justices to set back abortion rights 50 years among many other things that probably are worse than whatever Clinton could have done.

You can express your preferences in primaries, local elections, in movements to change voting laws, but once candidates in a first past the post system are locked in, it’s intentional ignorance to pretend like it won’t be one of the two major party candidates that will win, and not voting for one helps the other one. If you’re okay with that, fine, but don’t pretend that not voting is a neutral act. You’re giving away your voice to whoever is voting one of the two major candidates, and I assure you the right does not care about their candidate’s past or unsavory aspects.
