That’s certainly the internet refrain.
Weird that the people most enthusiastic about politics always gather together to accuse one another of not participating. But it sure does feed one’s sense of smugness to say it.

I see enough “don’t bother voting” folks IRL too. Hour long rants patting eachother on the back over how corrupt the system they never bothered participating in is.

I’ve never met a person proud not to vote who hasn’t spent a few decades voting to no good effect.

The overwhelming majority that I have are young people suffering from acute doomerism, which is why I hate “don’t bother voting” BS. Maybe the hope hasn’t been strangled out of me just yet XD
