Yeah it's simple advice but he's posting on a political forum about how politics irritates him.

My ballot had Beto Orouke and Ted Cruz as the options.

How many Hispanics said "que chengos pinche 'Orourke'?"

[DMC]

How dumb do you think Hispanic voters are?

Only about 16% of registered Hispanics actually voted last time. Most of the Hispanics I know prefer to remain off the radar.

[FrostKing]

Ads?? Where do you see these?

Havent seen one ad

Dont watch cable news and dont do face

Where are these ads?

Ive been receiving daily text messages from Democrats

When I spent a night in Anaheim, their local TV ads were non stop politics

It's actually "chingados" instead of "chengos", .

Okay, so Hispanics tend to be less likely to vote, which would seem to imply the 16% who do vote are more politically aware. You think those people don't know what Beto's last name is? Or what (R) and (D) mean?

I asked how dumb you think Hispanic voters are, you came back with the Hispanic voting rate.

[AaronY]

If the wait is really like 15 minutes or less in Atlanta and the media in an effort to dramatize things and get ratings/headlines is telling people its going to be 3 hours a lot of people are going to stay home. Lmao dumbasses

I asked "how many" and you then offered a non sequitur that lower percentage turnout indicates more intelligent voters.

So your question begs the question. I think people in general are dumb, and it's not necessarily race specific.

I canceled Boutons vote last week.

That's not a non sequitur. If one is a voting member of a non-voting subset of people, it stands to reason he is more informed. It may not be the case for every one of them, but it's a logical conclusion for the whole. It's a stretch to think many such people aren't going to know that "O'Rourke" = "Beto."

An example of a non sequitur would be giving an anecdote about Hispanic non-voters when asked a question about Hispanic voters, because what do Hispanics preferring to be off the radar have to do with the intelligence of a Hispanic voter?

1st, I've seen no studies that suggest voters are more informed than non-voters. 2nd, a subset of registered voters (let's not move the goalpost here) aren't necessarily more informed than the rest of the group. So yes, it is a non sequitur to suggest that those who voted are more informed than those who registered and did not vote. It might be wishful thinking but that's all it is. I suppose you've never heard the term "low information voter".

It may not be the case for every one of them, but it's a logical conclusion for the whole. It's a stretch to think many such people aren't going to know that "O'Rourke" = "Beto."

It's not a logical conclusion. Saying it more often doesn't make it more true.

I am the one who asked the question and you're the one who offered the non sequitur. Try to stick to that. What happened after you left the road isn't relevant.
