    If voting didn’t work they would let you do it. Those pieces of shits know that they will lose every single election beyond town mayor if the population turned out.

    Instead of bitching on lemmy go register minorities and young people to vote.

      This was the main thing George Carlin was wrong about.

        What’s the Robert Reich quote? Democratic apathy is a self-fulfilling prophecy, something like that.

        These more left-leaning internet forums are full of evangelical apathists trying to convince people not to vote. Convince people that being strategic is immoral and that the flawed good guys are the exact same as unrepentant bad guys.

          Heinlein was very active in politics and he despised the apathetic old liberal type. The one who never gets their hopes up and corrupts everyone with their resignation attitude. He suggested if you get one in your local political party give them busy work until they go away.

      So voting doesn’t work but we should register people to vote?
