 I’m not one of those people that think voting is pointless.

I just think our 2 choices for President absolutely suck. 
 That's one of the main reasons people think it's pointless. 
 Doesn’t that kinda mean the same thing though? 😂 
 Perhaps in a particular instance, but not in general!

Bitcoiners can and should run for office. I’m more and more convinced 
 why is it mainly white angry dudes that hate voting. sus. 😂

 What bothers me the most is how many roadblocks there are in getting on ballot. Especially in the presidential election, where you have to fight to get onto every state ballot. Meanwhile, the establishment gets a free pass onto every state ballot.
