    So are you mad that I support the democrats instead of the republicans?

    Or are you just mad that I recognized what the world is and made sure that I and my people would be fine?

      I’m mad that you think merely supporting democrats is sufficient. Sure, circling the drain slowly buys time, but if you aren’t using that time for something productive, what are you actually gaining? You’re one of a handful of people with the resources to actually make a difference, and you’re wasting them? At the very least stop trying to discourage people from seeing the systemic problems and start pointing them at organizations that will do what you apparently are too busy with your yacht to support.

        Oh, you’re one of those people that thinks once you vote you’re no longer capable of doing anything else.

            Probably that part.

              But as a white guy with a yacht capable of sailing the oceans, they’re coming for me last.

              Does that sound like someone doing anything productive to you?
