I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    I hear this stupid take a lot. Some typical “but we didn’t have any effect so we are innocent” BS. You have no idea how many common people “protest voters” misinformation campaign cause to throw their arms up and not vote. If that same group spent their efforts stirring up a drive to get out and vote for the only vote that could stop trump and his puppet masters from gaining devastating power in a critical election that would have toppled both maga and Elon, the sway would have been enormous. Instead they are all trump enablers and get the blame they deserve. (Also the “but the Democrats…blah blah” is a stupid argument, they ALSO get blame that doesn’t absolve the “protest vote” clowns of anything at all)
