      It’s an incredibly stupid movement where people are saying that they won’t vote as a protest to not liking either candidate.

      Usually said by people who have little to lose if Republicans win, seem to think revolution is a viable possibility if Republicans win, and/or think that by not voting something good might happen.

      Also people who don’t understand that our system is a First-Past-the-Post system and the only group of people who are trying to get support for not voting in this election are people on the left.

      So I’m not as many words: people trying to guarantee a victory for trump.

        Again, I haven’t seen anything like that. I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt by assuming that you aren’t dumb enough to be confusing the noncommitted movement of the DNC Primaries with the general election in November. You’re not that dumb, right?

          Don’t make the mistake of believing that just because you haven’t seen something that it doesn’t exist.

          We all exist in media bubbles and in those bubbles we miss a lot. By seeing this meme you could say that your media bubble has finally bumped into the bubble where people openly talk about not voting.

          Hell there’s comments in this comment section on the note of not voting.
