I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

The irony in this statement is also, palpable. Non-voters that blame ACTUAL voters for trump aren’t allies.
Sure bud. Lemme know whenever we can criticize the people you pay to bootlick.
It’s fucking hilarious how, suddenly- the protest-vote/non-vote ignorati are pleading with everyone to unify- while ignoring the fact that they were the ones that told us all to fuck off when we were trying to rally everyone to stand against the exact thing that that resulted from Their bullshit protesting.
I fucking called it!
I said that they’d all disappear after the election, and then return as victims of their refusal to unify against trump- and that is exact what is happening.
I hope they all enjoy the bed they made. I sincerely hope the cacophony of all the suffering they caused doesn’t keep them awake all night.
So is that a "no you can't criticize my Dear Leader"?
I don’t indulge bad faith manipulative questions that are asked for the purpose of building a straw man.
That's ironic coming from you. Lemme know whenever you block me like .ml blocks anyone who doesn't think North Korea is actually poggers or whatever.
Now we come to the party where I ask you to explain with evidence to support your accusation of my being “ironic” for saying I don’t entertain bad faith questions- and you either disappear, or side-step the request all-together.
Seems all you can do is accuse people of being “bootlickers” when you’re backed into a corner.
You literally do that but swap bootlicking for:
So… you’re admitting that you’re just as bad. Glad we could work together to bring you to this reality.
The difference of course, lies in the fact that trump’s election can’t be blamed on me.
Nor me, I voted Harris in California, voted for every democrat I could, and skipped the Republicans. Blanket primaries here are either all Republican or one Republican one Democrat, and I voted Democrat every time.
That depends on what you want to accomplish.
If the only thing that matters to you is going to the polls every 1-2 years, than non voters are meaningless.
If you want to transform society. Voting is only one vector. Unions, mutual aid, protest, consciousness raising, and so on don't have anything to do will polls, and non voters can be valuable allies.
