Yes, but they don't know that.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

People consciously vote for things that do not benefit them all the time, for example out of the sense of fairness. Also a lot of legislation is broadly neutral for many voters in the cost/benefit analysis.

A NF stating that people should not vote to abolish unfair laws because it does not benefit them is fucking ironic and sad at the same time.

Affirmitive action based purely on race- no way in hell.
Affirmitive action based on wealth- I 100% support this. And in practice in the US it will help a lot of minorities anyway.
