If it is MY vote, how can it be the wrong vote? Tell me Rob, what is the right vote?
I guess you didn't bother to read, or maybe COMPREHEND what I posted (see how your own accusations can so easily bite you in the ***?).

I'll try again. Maybe this time read it, and try to comprehend it:
An ill-informed vote is far worse than not voting. Mike Rowe phrased it well:
"Regardless of their political agenda, my celebrity pals are fundamentally mistaken about our “civic duty” to vote. There is simply no such thing. Voting is a right, not a duty, and not a moral obligation. Like all rights, the right to vote comes with some responsibilities, but lets face it – the bar is not set very high. If you believe aliens from another planet walk among us, you are welcome at the polls. If you believe the world is flat, and the moon landing was completely staged, you are invited to cast a ballot. Astrologists, racists, ghost-hunters, sexists, and people who rely upon a Magic 8 Ball to determine their daily wardrobe are all allowed to participate. In fact, and to your point, they’re encouraged."

"None of the freedoms spelled out in our Constitution were put there so people could cast uninformed ballots out of some misplaced sense of civic duty brought on by a celebrity guilt-trip."

I don't care about all that fluff. Tell me, what is the right vote Rob. Stop fucking backpedaling you pussy.
 
As I tell Rob so often... that is not ironic. What you have said is the SAME as what I suggested. For it to be ironic it would have to be the opposite and be amusing. What you posted is tautology. Not the same as irony.
Repetition of a falsehood doesn't make it a truth.
Every single time you tried to "correct" me on my use of the words "irony" and "ironic", you were wrong.
And I verified your error each time.
 
You try to correct me under the presumption that you are using the word correctly... this makes you wrong twice.

Play again.
Tell us all about hoe you know definitions better than the OED.
Tell us about your vast knowledge of anatomy and nerveless bones.
Tell us how mathematics has it all wrong with averages.
Tell us how economics has it all wrong with supply, demand, and pricing.
Tell us how medical science doesn't understand virology as well as you do.

Your vision of your capabilities is about as far skewed from reality as it could be, kid.
Just because you THINK you know or you WANT to know, doesn't mean you DO know.
And the fact is, you DON'T know.
You've proved it a ridiculous number of times here. The list above is the tip of the iceberg.
 
Ahhh misdirection now. I'll ask for the third time. What is the right vote?
Misdirection is what you are trying with your "what is the right to vote?" question.
It's not relevant to the concept in any way.
You failed again.

So in speaking to CONVERSATION and the concept I shared, do you think someone who is uninformed or ill-informed should be placing their vote simply because they have a RIGHT to do it?
 
You try to correct me under the presumption that you are using the word correctly... this makes you wrong twice.

Play again.
Tautology speaks to repetition in the same sentence, not things said by different people at different points in time about the same topic.

i.e. - Multiple newspaper articles about the same car accident would not be an example of tautology.
You and Jimi saying the same thing with different words would not be tautology.
"LCD Display" & "ATM Machine" are examples of tautology.
