History happens twice, first as a tragedy, then as a farce

I love science

The problem is that everytime is "let's wait for the election then push them left" and it never works.

This is not the fault of voters or non voters, it's that American democracy is not a democracy, the parties never listen to the will of the people. And that's why voting ultimately doesn't change anything, because it's just a pretext to make you think you are making a difference. As important as it is to vote, that is how our leaders view it.

Talking to people instead of constantly judging them =\ coddling

For a party called "democrats" you don't really act like your neighbor is a person like you. They disagree so they should suck it up and do what you want.

Look in the mirror and find the source of the dems losses. Not non-voters. Your attitude

Get off your horse, pardner. No one talked about coddling. Just fricking talk to people like you actually want to understand their POV instead of feeling like you're the only moral people in the world.

Incredibly hypocritical and """juvenile""" is how you choose to act

A non vote is a vote, a vote against an elecotral system that doesn't work. The fact that said system ignores non voters is a fault in democracy, not in the people.

Now, i can agree with saying "look, this candidate is so much worse that it's worth it to go even if you don't like it" What i don't agree with is telling people that are OBJECTIVELY right in not wanting to be part of endorsing a genocider that they are like nazis, that the world is gonna crumble because of them.

Maybe if you tried to understand their point of view they might change their minds. That is the problem with you americans, like good patriarchs everything is a binary and if you do not think the same as me you're automatically the worst interpretation of my enemy. You yourself might have not beahved like this, and i appreciate it, but most people in these comments automatically assumed that I wouldn't vote or that I would encourage others to not do it.

I am just saying, stop being so judgemental when you don't really know people's reasoning for what they choose to do. People hate this attitude and the DEM party constantly uses it. No wonder they lose when it matters the most.

You read whatever you want to read.

No, i'm just surrounded by people who don't know reading comprehension. I never said people shouldn't vote, i am not the projection of the people you despise, i am my own individual with my own view. Ppl here are talking to me like i am endorsing trump while i am just fucking saying you should also look to yourselves and your methods if you really want to find out why people don't vote

It funny to me that "trying" for you only amounts to voting.

Non voting is supposed to tell a party that what it does is not working. If the party hasn't listened in 2016, 2020, and now you can't blame people who are disillusioned. The dem party refuses to actually fight and instead gives in to the same corpos that fund the republicans. Blame your coward leaders and maybe they'll actually get good at their job

Again, just because you don't see it it doesn't mean it's not there

That's just false, protests and criticisms happen outside of races too, you just don't see it
