Well I suppose you could always whine about it online instead?

It costs you nothing to register as a Dem so you can vote against these fuckers in the primaries, except maybe some worthless sense of idealogical purity.

I have 0 desire to be mercilessly spammed by the Dems or Repubs because I registered with their party.

Plus no one but me should know / needs to know my party affiliation. In today’s day and age of wanting more privacy, this is part of it. I don’t want to be on the wrong side of history because I was registered with a party.

Apparantly you also have 0 desire to see effective change unless it's exactly as you want it, because you refuse to participate on principal.
