I love how people don't understand what the trolley problem was created to teach.

Also, my vote 100% doesn't matter because of where I live.

Neither does mine, but I'm still doing it. Worst cae, the popular vote being very far from the electoral college results highlights some of the absurdity in the system, which is a vital part of accumulating support for changing the system. Best case, I don't understand the political landscape of my state as well as I think I do, and I contribute to it turning blue, even for a single election.
