Just one more election, bro. This time we'll get on track. Just one more election, bro. This one is the most important one in our lives. Just one more election, bro. /s
Disclaimer: Vote, if you want to (it's not too much of a hassle for me, so I indulge in some elections, too). But please don't volunteer for electoral campaigns if there are better options available to get polieically engaged (there always are).
If you are fighting and have a weapon, why not using it? Even if it's a dull knife it can help.
It's like using a butterknife when there's a revolver almost in reach.
I'm not really understanding the metaphor. In what way did I tell you "not to use the weapon"? I literally said "vote, if you want to".
In your metaphor, I'd be saying "don't put energy into learning how to use a butterknife, if better options are available".
