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

Don’t be engaged in politics, it’s your choice. Just don’t complain when we have a conservative SCOTUS for the rest of our lives because you weren’t jazzed by Biden.

What I am saying: if you want people to vote for biden, calling them stupid and ignoring their grievances is ineffective and borders on counteractive.

What I'm not saying: don't engage in politics.

Move to Idaho and other states like mine and it'll sure influence your vote.
