It's not working. We need to sacrifice something more powerful. *stares at Ifreann*

Yet ironically, by doing so, you've ACTUALLY just achieved the exact opposite in a more concrete and greater way (by permanently losing the right to play video games) than your participation in the voting process as an individual ever ACTUALLY contributed positively. Now that's fruit for thought when some people are so attached to a theoretical assertion of a right that they would stand by that even though the practical result is a concrete avoidable loss had they not done so. I'm not sure you've really thought this through. Your answer makes as much sense as a person saying he would be willing to set his house on fire and keep it permanently destroyed to secure his right not to have his house burned down (when the default position was that his house was in no danger). You have literally chosen to have permanently less rights in the very area that you claim your decision is helping to "safeguard." Now from where I'm standing, that is beyond silly and poorly thought out.
No. I'm saying that your hypothetical is entirely fucking stupid. Before seeing this thread, I did not even believe that a hypothetical could be this incredibly asinine. Your comparison doesn't make sense either.
Seriously, I don't know how you're getting straight As in law school when you make arguments this stupid.

Voting still effects my life more than playing video games does, as i am casting my support for different politicians whose policies can affect my life, for good or worse.
I find that far more important than playing a video game despite my great love for them.

You mean you want to take advantage of your right to vote?
