Eating won't fix cancer, so don't bother.
My guy: sometimes you do things to prevent new problems. Making nothing better still beats making everything worse.

Fuck off.
A Republican appointed the judges that did the thing, which was only possible because another Republican singlehandedly created vacancies at every level, and your trolling ass wants to cleverly investigate who got elected after the fix was in.
None of which would have been possible if more people voted for Democrats.
We would now need more Democrats elected to fix it, than we would have needed to stop it. Even if we somehow get that, god willing, but then they don't fix it, their presence will stop Republicans from making it EVEN WORSE.
But you're not listening to a goddamn word of this because you just want to go "both sides" and jerk off about the moral superiority of your complete worthless inaction.
Not-fixing beats making-worse.
I am directly telling your point to go fuck itself.
Stop letting the worse party get in, ever! Fuck your emotions! This is hard practical logic - you're not being asked to pledge loyalty and devotion, you're being asked which set of assholes gets to be in power. Stop letting the worse assholes take power.
Also fuck your hypocrisy "holding issues over heads" when you keep namedropping Roe v. Wade and blaming the party that didn't make it worse for not stopping the the party that made it worse.
Worse things happen when they're not in power.
Mewling 'but that's not ideal!' isn't news.
