I haven’t voted in years after reading the argument that voting mainly serves to slot you into a cohort, making it easier for governments and corporations to profile you. Recently I heard someone argue the opposite angle: don’t vote because none of the politicians deserve you. A comedian mocked that stance as basically holding your breath when you are angry.
Now I’m conflicted because both arguments feel compelling in different ways. What are your strongest arguments for voting, or against voting?
I disagree with the notion that the GOP respects their voters. They definitely not either. They might fear some of the voters at times but I don’t consider this the same as respect
I’d take that over the DNC running a neolib against the winner of their own primary in the general in the rare event we are able to beat them in their rigged primaries. The GOP NEVER pulls that shit on their voters.
