      Then you’ll just get the idiots voting in fascism eventually so you’d be as well to join them to speed it up.

      More like Americans should just not vote anymore.

      Its not a popular take, but I agree that voting probably the least important thing any American could do, politically. Its a misattributed quote but its still a good one:

      Voting is the least important thing you can do, politically. There are somethings that have happened recently in the news that have vastly more impact, politically.

        Voting does change things. That’s why Republicans are trying to suppress your vote. So yes people do want to make voting illegal because it does change things.

          :shakes head:

          No, it doesn’t.

          Voting has such a negligible effect on policy it can basically be ignored. Its a “thing” you can do politically, but its the “least” thing possible. So minor relevant as to be largely ignorable.
