There is a special kind of laugh for the useful idiots who blame non-voters for not voting rather than the party leadership of the party they wanted to win for refusing to do the bare minimum to turn those non-voters into voters.
It’s the same kind of laugh reserved for people who, when their own team plays horribly and loses to a crap team, blame the referee.
there’s enough blame to go around for the non voters AND the dem leadership to be at fault for harris’s loss.
Stopping trump should have been a good enough reason to get more people voting AND the dems should have done more to get those votes. Both are true.
Do Americans not have any “protest” votes, either third party candidates, or “declining” your ballot? To me, that shows that you are politically engaged and willing to take a few minutes out of your day to do your civic duty, rather than being apathetic and/or lazy.
We do have third party candidates, but most liberals would consider voting third party the same as not voting thanks to the stranglehold that the Democrats and Republicans have on our political system.
I bet most of the people who didn’t vote didn’t even know the platforms of the parties beyond a few generic sound bites.
Anyway, voting is a civic duty; it doesn’t matter if none of the parties’ platforms excite you, it’s your job as a citizen to vote for the good of your country. Most adults go to the dentist even if they don’t get a toy afterwards.
Well, I too think voting is a civic duty.
My point being that judging by the levels of voting abstention all over the World, many (probably most) people, don’t think that.
