Comment on Wikimedia Foundation calls on US Supreme Court to strike laws that threaten Wikipedia
Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 9 months agothe largest party in the county is the party of “I don’t vote.” If you actually manage to wake up 10%… 20%… 30%… of those people
Which part of “not able to” don’t you get? Calling disenfranchised people asleep is victim blaming that doesn’t give them the right and ability to vote back.

Oh bull shit. There are way more apathetic people that don’t vote because they don’t want to (because they don’t think it matters or don’t care) than people that are actually not able to vote.
If your “disenfranchisement” in particular boils down to “both sides … my vote doesn’t matter” I have 0 sympathy for you. It very clearly does matter.

I’m sympathetic to people who voted for the right policies but still live there. Not to the people who can vote but choose not to exercise their rights and then complain about how things are going.
Otherwise, I think you’re rude and full of shit.

Are still not the people I’m talking about. Retire that strawman, please.
Well you’re half right. I’m being rude on purpose because your moronic take based on prejudice and ignoring the faults of your “teams” DESERVES that and more. Also, pretty hypocritical to complain about me being rude in the same sentence as calling me full of shit 🙄
Pro tip: the one who’s full of shit is usually the one who keeps repeating the same strawman over and over after the other has explained thoroughly and repeatedly that it’s not what they’re saying.
In conclusion: you’re wrong and we’re done here. Have the day you deserve.
