    Or just incredibly ignorant. I think we vastly overestimate the political intelligence of the people in this country.

    There are a metric fuckton of apathetic people that are “too busy” to give a shit about politics unfortunately. Hell just look at the articles after the election that called out Google searches for “did Biden drop out?” spiking on election day.

    These people are too busy watching whatever braindead Netflix bullshit, or just not watching anything at all to know what’s even going on.

      That can’t excuse them.

      Even if they lived in a bubble, it’s impossible that they never heard anything about all the orange turd rants and how dangerous he is. Not voting for any reason makes you an accomplice of whoever wins, because your apathy means you are ok with whatever goes, including fascism.

        That might be correct but it’s not going to get more people to vote, which is what we need to happen.
