I don't think it helps anyone to absolve their complicity in not doing their civic duty. They still have a choice regardless if theyre "excited."

There's zero reason not to turn out. Period.

Unless people truly don't care and it turns out, a bunch truly don't.

My point being everyone points to them all the time. Why not people who vote for fascism or abstain?

Primary turnouts are TERRIBLE. People complain all the time but generally do fuck all to make anything different. For as much bitching as there is people could be electing more mamdanis or Aocs or whoever but they don't.

They prefer to bitch online, to their friends, etc. and then not use the primary tool to change anything and somehow expect things to just magically get better. I have friends and family who do just this.

I'm just railing against the idea it's all the fault of the "establishment" or whatever is the word of the day instead of allocating at least some blame to people who don't do anything to effect their situation and expect others to do all the work.
