Dear America: Yes You Did
So I’ve been following the US election pretty… obsessively. Like, REALLY obsessively.
And there are a few people who have been eyerolling me whenever I mention it. Because, after all, it isn’t MY country. I didn’t vote. It isn’t MY president. Why should I care?
This is, of course, ridiculous.
I’m sick of people saying “they’re all the same”. I’m sick of people saying “one vote never made a difference”. This is nonsense. Every vote makes a difference. And they are not the same.
I’ve got a lot more to say on this particular issue, but I’m very tired, so for now I’ll just say – today was a good day to be alive. I’m off to bed with the knowledge that when I wake up tomorrow morning, the world will be a little bit better than it was this morning.
