What a stupid throwaway strawman. Lenin both saw the traps of electoralism while encouraging tactical participation in it. He certainly wouldn't encourage "vote blue, no matter who". That gets you Fettermans and Sinemas. https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1911/oct/18c.htm

tAnKiEs are out here voting for people while liberals demand they vote how they would, it's not good enough

I love voting, try and stop me going to the polling booth on election day

A well known benefit of not voting is you don’t need to update your registration and have new and up to the moment information about yourself available to anyone who can register a pac.

Most of the people I see telling people not to vote are Red and Blue guys talking to anyone thinking about voting for a third party. I see AOC make shit up about the Green Party candidates when the Green Party candidates are the ones putting their asses on the line, getting arrested, and protesting the abhorrent shit this administration does. That is worlds away from a Chuck Schumer letter.

The green party accidentally registered their candidate as a referendum question in Nevada, instead of as a candidate.

Give it a minute or two. They scour the traffic for anything tangentially related to them to get the sweet, sweet 50c per post they would get paid for.

The Nazi-Soviet alliance was brought up a bit ago, that sure got them out of the woodwork!

My favorite is "I'm not political so I don't vote".

MFer, YOU are a big reason why we're here now, having to put up with this corrupt shit! GET OFF YOUR SORRY ASS!

(Imo voting should be mandatory like in AU)

This! So much this! While married to my ex-husband his ENTIRE family wasn’t registered to vote. Before I got out of that messy marriage I had all but two of twenty registered and voting in local elections.
