Many voters have said this to themselves I am just one vote, and it won't change the result of the election. Now say this whilst you look into a mirror, an infinity mirror.
There's strength in numbers, and weakness comes by not having the numbers.
Try looking at the numbers in the picture above. Then think back to all the years where they say million and millions of people didnβt vote. Want pretty charts and graphs? Find them yourself.
This is excellent. Thank you. One thing I noticed is there is no figure for number of registered voters in 2024. Maybe I missed the explanation for that?
So sad and disheartening. How hard was it to understand that Democracy needed your vote. How hard was it to take part in early voting or mail in ballots. The no show vote gave approval to a felon. Oh and screw any one on SSI. That alone was a yes vote for Harris.
What's worse is that some of those who didn't vote were using their vote as some kind of protest against the Biden Administration. Between them & the 3rd party voters who were also using their votes as a protest gave us Trump. If you want to protest fine but don't waste your vote to do it.
And how many of those "didn't vote" were people who actually did vote but had their ballots tossed? How many of those "didn't vote" because their voting locations were shut down due to bomb threats? How many of those "didn't vote" had their votes manipulated by Elon Musk? We will never know!
It's not just apathy; it's disillusionment, feeling invisible. If we don't move away from a corporate- owned government, that percentage will just keep growing.

Even people I'm close to. For example, I'm completely concerned about the state of things & a friend is mostly oblivious.
Even with prior convos about P25, Roe v. Wade reversal & what it's personally doing to me & my rights π€·ββοΈ
Keep doing what you are!
A Bernie style approach would crush it.
Idk how else to feel but disgusted. Like, completely disgusted.
Thanks a lot, Group C.
