I’m not talking about the narrative you’ve got in your head about what statements you’re making with your actions, I’m also not including what you suppose or predict the result of the vote to be, that’s not logical or helpful…

I’m talking about simple actions and consequences, let me lay this out more simply:

No vote: no change for either candidates chances of success == no preference

A vote for either: a change for both candidates chances of success (slightly improved and slightly decreased) == a preference

I don’t know about all that, I just enjoy logic. I’m replying to you saying “I’d choose not to vote”, that is not the same as saying “none of the above”, it’s the same as saying “any of the above”

You’re not saying “none of these”, as it will ultimately still be one of them, more accurately you’re saying: “I’ll take either equally”

As a person who grew up in Ireland since I was 5: this is funny to me
