it is laziness, it's going out of your daily routine to go to a place to vote. you just made it sound like a paper shows up at your house or something and u just got to mark it and send it back. you actually got to leave the house.

lol @ preselected by the ruling class

voting apathy is dangerous

Voting is dangerous because its an implicit acceptance and approval of the system.

and buying video games and bougeious food isn't?

i leave my house every day to go to work, why would i care about stopping to vote if it actually mattered. i didn't care in the past, when i didn't realize how useless voting was

lol @ preselected by the ruling class

Arguably but I'm not here sitting here telling people they're dumbasses for either playing video games or not playing video games. All of what you're posting here is subreformist lifestyleism based on liberal individualist mythology though.

no, voting has nothing to do with individualism. like protests that fought for an 8 hr workday, better wages , woman's suffrage,  voting can do the same thing. voting apathy is why morons get into office on low voting turnout rates, it's why canada has harpercons in office when only 30% of the country actually gave a shit to vote, now realizing their mistake record turnout rates in alberta now ousting the cons.

voting is a waste of time in canada too but even moreso in the US because the electoral system in the US is rigged to never allow more than two parties and just due to the facts of political economy those two parties are always going to be practically uniform in policy outside of minor superficial differences crafted for political gain. you must actually think it matters if a republican or a democrat is president lol.

no one is getting pre selected, you just need to be wealthy to run a proper campaign and i guess are wealthy people are scum or completely out of touch with reality.

yea but bernie isn't a typical democrat even though he's running as one. the guy at the very least works to chip away at the archaic american mentality of socialism being a bad word.

Uh yeah that's the whole point? The system is set up so that those are the only people who can possibly win an election.

I'm a leftist I'm not voting for some middlebrow Social Democrat just because the only other electoral options are worse, why bother with the rigged elections anyway. Effective political change and action comes from the streets not a voting booth.
