MODERATORS
They probably couldn't afford to miss a day to work, and they know from experience that neither party is going to do anything to change that.
I don't personally care if someone voted or not, especially this election.
I shake my head at ballots cast for elephants
I shake my head at ballots cast for donkeys
cuz I swear to God our leaders
they will be the death of us
there is no vote we can cast to set us free
vote November second if it seems right to you
don't vote if you think it just holds us down
but tell me what we're gonna do on November third
to make sure there's no government left to elect two years from now
The generals still went the right way, but I'm quite frustrated by them not being as mobilized for regionals and locals as a way to signal disatisfaction on something they perceived to matter less. It has lots of practical effects that shouldn't be ignored for the sake of performative anger.
Wait, which election were you asking about again?
Good for them. The less people who vote, the easier it is to claim correctly that the supposed rulers are illegitimate.
