75 mil cast their ballots FOR THE NICE BLACK LADY. As in maybe it isn’t warranted to rag on the protester who didn’t vote 🪷 because there’s a whole lot MOAR 🪷 voters who didn’t get out in the streets last weekend.

They shouldn't be bothered, though. This isn't saying protest is bad. This is saying the people who protested but then didn't follow it up with voting two days later need to understand what creates change.
I am saying the number of protestors who didn’t vote two days later might very well be vastly overstated. If everyone who voted in the primary gathered at Reston Town Center, the reporting would be all “MASSIVE TURNOUT” even though the numbers would be the same.
Possibly. I would also expect, though, that people who did not themselves see the protests should be moved by them. That's the point, right? To impact those not protesting? Because any way we slice it, <10% voting turnout is terrible.
Agreed. But we're not there. Similar to overturning CU, this would require a lot of Democrats being elected for a long period of time (though not as long as it would take to overturn CU, since that would require multiple SCOTUS appointments).
Voting is inherently really quiet while demonstrating is inherently loud. I’m reminded of handwringing over there being more votes in American idol than the ballot box. Yeah because my SIXTEEN year old self can vote for Kimberly Locke 500 times on the same evening!

Australia does it and they have like a 99% turnout and it just makes everything better .
We know the answers to fix it. We just elected people who don’t want to.
The machine doesn’t care it’ll use whoeve
So in the meantime, we have to get there.
Look how hard America is trying to keep us divided because they know as soon as we all collectively start to get it it’s over
If it comes out and they do internal investigations at the election was actually stolen
Make it a holiday give people the day off afterwards to we could make this cool. We just don’t want to.
You’re also caught up on the rules and expectations. It’s our choice.
You’re contradicting yourself
When I criticize stuff, I’m calling it out from love. See I knew America is majority good.
But we haven’t had a large scale show of faith and a long time
You being unable to see the perspective of Maga
If you would’ve took the time to actually read the whole video, you might have a better understanding of what maga is going through
But you’re are just as
