        Voting and not voting in this system are the same decision. Either way you’re pissing somebody off and either way you don’t get what you want. Imagine thinking not voting is rebellious rather than the default. You should want and be empowered to vote for somebody, not against.

      You can contribute toward making the duopoly lean one way or the other based on consistent voting. Or you can stop votiing and thereby disenfranchising yourself.

        I’m exercising my right not to vote. That’s as much of a liberty as voting. Being disenfranchised is voting in a system that doesn’t work for you.
