As intended, no doubt
If voting didn’t work they would let you do it. Those pieces of shits know that they will lose every single election beyond town mayor if the population turned out.
Instead of bitching on lemmy go register minorities and young people to vote.
In addition to bitching on lemmy go register minorities and young people to vote.
I’m probably, you know, just…… uhhhh, going to go take a nap or something like Joe Biden said I should do
So voting doesn’t work but we should register people to vote?
If voting did not work, they would let you/want you to vote.
Voting does work, so they don’t want you to vote. So yes, get people registered and involved in voting.
Oh, I apologize, I must have misread.
I think there’s a typo.
If voting didn’t work they would let you do it.
This was the main thing George Carlin was wrong about.
What’s the Robert Reich quote? Democratic apathy is a self-fulfilling prophecy, something like that.
These more left-leaning internet forums are full of evangelical apathists trying to convince people not to vote. Convince people that being strategic is immoral and that the flawed good guys are the exact same as unrepentant bad guys.
This is a forty year old tactic at least, too. It’s not like we don’t know they do this.
How is it a forty year old tactic that still gets implemented? Because the corporate news media literally cannot say that. Maybe in an “opinion” column by a well known lefty or some weak ass shit like that. But report? A front page news? On GOP screwing up the college vote again? Noooooooooo.
Especially not the Trump-enabling WaPo. No, these are “new” voter laws, not an old-as-dirt cheating tactic the GOP has been using since at least Reagan. Fuck you, WaPo. Democracy dies when you do what you do.
