if you hate voter apathy.....FIX IT Discussion

the reason voter apathy exists is because ever since the 70s, people vote to put politicians in power, and then get fucked when said politicians serve the interests of corporations while doing nothing to directly and materially affect positive change in peoples everyday lives.

if you hate apathy, then give people something to vote FOR rather than against

because....and i hate to say it but I think this year will prove it......voting "against" isnt going to work anymore

Yep. Shows how important it is to keep Republicans out of power so we can take back the supreme court.
