Notice how most anti-Trumpers have little good to say about their candidate of choice?

Hell even those who voted Trump and are now sort of erring away from him at least say 'He's funny as fuck'.
That's what happens when your idea of "good" is wholly negative: Not a racist, not a sexist, not a criminal, not that other guy. You spend so much time congratulating yourself on how not evil you are that you forget to actually do affirmatively good things.
Usually, because they backed a shit-tier candidate who lost, and desperately need someone to blame.
They do point out she had a vagina and therefore was entitled to be President because it was her turn.
This argument did little to convince voters, though.
She didn't even do her husband. An intern had to do that. I can't name a single accomplishment of this bitch.

Oh boy, the Washington Post just dropped a bombshell of a report detailing how Clinton and the DNC funded the Trump-Russia dossier:

How will the left respond to this?

They'll ignore it and whine about sexism like they always do. These people are sheep.
The same way they responded to the declassification of the Venona Project and the revelation that the Rosenbergs, Klaus Fuchs, Alger Hiss, Harry Dexter White, and others actually were Soviet agents:
By pretending it doesn't exist.

Ah yes. The Arab Spring. Anyone else remember when the Arab Spring was supposed to be the Muslim version of the Autumn of Nations? Then ended up being the Muslim version of 1848 instead of 1989? Because I sure do. Oh how
some people were.
wikipedia will say Washington Post is now an untrusted source
memory hole it
Wait a minute wasn't the Russia Dossier the one where he hired strippers to pee on the bed? Do people consider that a real intelligence document?
Because I refuse to believe anyone but rapid anti-trump people dream of nothing better than breaking into Trump Tower and peeing on his bed to "fight evil", it screams projection.

BANANA BANANA BANANAAAAAA,
Holy fuck I had to stop watching it half way through because of the secondhand cringe I got from it. It was like Shia LeBouf freestyling. Fucking hell...
"Imma walk inside a mosque on Ramadan
And say a prayer that every time Melania talks
She gets a mou... Ahh, Imma stop."
Wait he's muslim now? And Liberal? And PC? da fuck?

To be fair, I can understand why someone would not want to vote. Presidential candidates are supposed to inspire citizens, and voting should be about choosing which candidate you feel would be best for the country, but if someone doesn't feel inspired by either candidate, and believes that both of them will do a horrible job as leader, then they should have the right to not pick either one. Being a U.S. citizen shouldn't be about choosing a president purely out of fear of the other candidate, and these people who bully and shame you for not being on their side aren't helping matters in getting everyone wanting to vote.
That "Douche and Turd Sandwich" episode from South Park couldn't be any more relevant for this election.

Well, there are generally lots of down ballot races in Presidential election years. Also, being uninspired by a politician will not be rare, and it isn't a great reason to surrender the franchise, imo.
That said, mandatory voting is stupid, and I think that it's probably a general good that most people who don't vote make that choice.
To make a stretch analogy, berating people for not voting is like berating people who have never handled a firearm for not exercising their 2nd Amendment rights to gun ownership.
I don't mind that people don't vote, it's just irritating having them piss, moan, and complain about things that happen that they could've helped avoid. Like their taxes going up due to yet another levy being passed that has a 99.999% chance that it will just go to line some crony's pocket.
At least Colbert got a trip to Russia out of it and we got to see a 53 year old man embarrass himself by jumping on a bed and screaming "PEE PEE TAPE," I guess.
That idea is all well and good provided that you're a reasonably well off individual who probably won't be directly affected too much by what the government does. It's unfair for Heinlen to suggest that people who genuinely need help in some way are somehow neglecting their civic duty by voting for a person whose policies would benefit themselves but not necessarily other people.
It's such an "I'm comfortably middle class" idea I'm going to bet that Heinlen was either a committed libertarian or a committed socialist/communist.
Slightly more on topic: Do we know when the inevitably disappointing JFK files are coming out? Wasn't it supposed to be today or tomorrow?

JFK files come out tomorrow.
As for Heinlen. Yeah he was a pretty hardcore Libertarian.
The idea that people should serve in the military if they wanna vote has anti-military origins. There were some old congress bill proposals that if you voted you should be drafted so that if you vote for someone who causes a war you will die from it.
The other origin of it is from Major General Smedley Butler of the Marine Corp who hated how much (((bankers))) and corporations gained from World War 1 (He wrote this in War is a Racket). He wanted people to serve before they can vote so that they understand how awful military life is so that they would never ever want to put citizens of the USA in a position where they would be drafted in addition to seeing how much power (((bankers))) and corporations had on the US military so they would work together to get rid of any corporate control of the US military.
