Yeah that's a performative waste of time. I might as well say I did vote since it means equally as much as me spending the time it takes to vote making dinner instead.
Oh no shame in just not doing this shit. I halfheartedly tried changing my party affiliation to PSL online and then didnt even both to send in my write-in ballot. My more lib sister was so pissed leading up to the election cause I just shrugged off voting. I went into downtown Pittburgh even, during the pandemic to get photos for my american labor history final about the Railroad strike. Passed lines of people voting, my mother drove me down and had to race back to pick my sister up to take her voting.
So I literally had no excuse not to and just went "nah fuck it, im literally standing in the place where the national guard massacred over 60 of my cities' workers and their families, bayonet charged and killed an infant. I'll walk past those suckers and pay my respect to people who died over 100 years ago here because they understood power and politics far more than those fools. They represent me better than my own vote ever will, just with the blood they split fighting for what I believe in" it honestly felt kinda beautiful, refusing and touring around labor sites
See this is why you have to do joke votes.....or vote Hillary but for 2020 like Matt did
