You compare voting to the laws of physics. They’re not even remotely similar. Politics is choice.
A more apt comparison would be a little kid crying that he wants a chocolate ice cream, his mum says he should order that, then to be funny/petulant/assertive he orders strawberry - and gets mad at his mum when the server gives him strawberry.
“It was your job to make me choose what I wanted!”, he wails.
Reminded me of when the Republicans overrode Obama’s veto of that one 9/11 bill, and then complained that it was his fault and he didn’t warn them hard enough.
The options weren’t chocolate and vanilla. They were getting kicked down a steep hill or kicked off a cliff, and you seem flabbergasted that some people chose to flip the bird instead of groveling and thanking the democrats for only kicking them down a steep hill.
Especially when in the next 4 years their options are gonna be slightly steeper hill or another cliff.
Instead of choosing to die off the cliff, they should have chosen the steep hill and then climbed back up to kick ass for having been kicked down a hill.
Apparently they’d rather choose the obviously far inferior of two options (even in their own analogy) and then complain about how bad it is, because at least they didn’t have to grovel?
Yeah, I don’t think their analogy suggests what they think it suggests.
They tell us the two options right there, and then immediately say they chose a nonexistent third option of walking away… Very apt comparison, just not in the way that they think.

See, what you’re doing is pretending that there was a third option of walking away and flipping the bird, when in reality that was never a choice.

Edit: my phone can’t spell ‘comparison’

Your comparison is worse.

Pointless to engage further I think.
