I disagree that we don’t outnumber them. We absolutely do. If good people stop saying voting is pointless and encourage people to vote instead.

And I told you polls everywhere prove you wrong, to which you said "try democracy". Thanks for the recap. It still doesn't make sense :D

Yeah, some people don't vote, but this group also has people from both sides.

The largest group of non-voters are the young, who overwhelmingly support progressive positions.

  1. that overwhelmingness is unfortunately less overwhelming than you probably think and it is getting worse with time, as russian intelligence continues to influence the online space.
  2. it doesn't matter if they don't vote

Sorry, but people who admit that Russia has an influence and has been propagandizing and encouraging third party or non-voting, are usually the ones who say that voting does matter.
