Two quotes from Eugene Debs . The younger and more idealistic Debs Let me say to you It is infinitely better to vote for freedom and fail than to vote for slavery and succeed . 1900 The older and wiser Debs , who is about to be sentenced to ten years in prison When great changes occur in history , when great principles are involved , as a rule the majority are wrong . 1918 Conclusion Voting is much easier than educating , organizing and direct action , but unless you do the harder things too , it ' s no more than a symbolic gesture . <| sep |> A city seems like a great place to find more human enemies . <| sep |> I used to be , but Windows 10 has me completely flummoxed . <| sep |> Not sure what they hope to achieve with a recount other than tampering with the votes already counted .
