I Supported Bernie More Passionately Than Anything I’ve Ever Supported In This Country. I Voted For

I supported Bernie more passionately than anything i’ve ever supported in this country. I voted for him, wore his merchandise, his bumper sticker still sits proudly on my car, but I will not be writing him in next week.

Immediately after his loss I looked for hope in the green party, joined jill steins meme dank stash, did research on her policies and though I was skeptic about a few things I had hope. But as time went on just like the rest of the candidates she too proved to be just not enough. Her failure to run an effective campaign and her anti-science pandering was too much for me and I found myself staring dreadfully at our only two real choices.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

God knows I do not want to vote for either of these two vile, corrupted, insane individuals. One is a clown and the other a robot, both interested in their own agendas and not the well being of the people they wish to lead. I’m tired of the news, i’m tired of the drama, I’m tired of cringe worthy arguments on facebook. So I went back to the last thing I believed in, and listened to Bernie. He believed in us, and so I am choosing to believe in him. He had an idea for the future and an idea for what it meant to be free and be great, and i know he hasn’t given up on those ideas, so I will listen to him and vote for Hillary because a protest vote won’t help anyone, or anything, a protest vote won’t help him or the ideologies that I stand for. And voting for Trump would be voting for everything he fought for, so I will vote for Hillary. Not because I’m a shill, or a hillbot, because God I despise that human being. But because the alternative is the exact opposite of what I stand for, so I have to make a sacrifice and vote for the lesser evil because my future and the future of my daughter depends on it.

I kind of want to see a story about an elf; tall, beautiful, clumsy as fuck, and an industrial worker who can’t do archery to save themselves and swears all the time.

And I kind of want to see a story about a dwarf; short, robust, hairy, elegant, sweet, very refined and a lover of poetry who’s never said a rude word in their life.

I just think it would be an interesting change of pace.

Seeing some real JJ hate and it’s pissing me off

image

For starters, the whole ice kiss thing - kissing the ice is a perfectly normal thing in figure skating. This isn’t about him being in love with himself - it’s sort of an emotional thing - a kiss goodbye, a thank you to the ice - as cheesy as that may sound - or just that they felt they performed well.

Canadian ice dancer Scott Moir - and you’ll remember JJ’s parents are supposed to be famous ice dancers - did the same in Sochi.

image

More infamous yet, is Canadian figure skater David Pelletier’s kiss on the ice during the 2002 Olympics where he and partner Jamie Sale were at the centre of a judging scandal that originally cost them gold. Interesting to note: Sale and Pelletier had a son named Jesse Joe Pelletier. French-Canadian dad, figure skating parents and JJ initials? Coincidence?

And then there’s the whole “he’s so cocky and arrogant and I’ll like him as soon as he shows he’s not a terrible person.” According to the wikia, he does a lot of charity work in the off-season, as any good Canadian athlete would. How is charity work not a good thing?

Then there’s this:

Crossing yourself is a Catholic thing. He’s religious. I highly doubt one can say the creators made him a hypocritical religious person, so I think it’s safe to say that he holds those kinds of values.

Is he a cocky, arrogant bastard? Absolutely. But over-confidence does not make one a bad person. I’m a huge fan of Dearka in Gundam SEED, and I don’t see people complaining about his arrogance. Besides, saying things like “I’m the only one that can pull this off” could entirely be a mental tactic.
