Hmm, it appears that Hermertia has finally succumbed to the old adage about politics and civil discourse not being mutually compatible.
Simmer down here folks! Yes, as with nearly every other political contest, this is liable to bring up controversial views. Let's not forget what we're here for.
Quite taken aback at this exchange, to be honest.
Thanks for reminding us Nick. I guess I didn't foresee that I would be crucified for having a differing viewpoint. I've been with you guys for 4+ years, and just now my character is being attacked. I wonder why it hasn't been brought up in the past? I like to think I'm a reasonable person, so if I really was bugging any of you I would have loved to switch up the way I interacted. And yes, Sam and Mark, you did request that I mind my manners recently, and I have. Almost to a fault I would say, as I pretty much just don't converse at all anymore.
And Sevrys, yes I am white. But that doesn't mean I don't have gay friends, African American friends, Central American friends. Cause I do. Ironically, it appears that near all of them also voted the same way I did. So, it's not as clear cut as "you're white, and don't understand." All I want is the best for my country, and as much as it pained me, I truly, honestly believe that I made the right choice. It'll be on my own head if I'm wrong.
