          No, you clearly did not understand.

          “Not voting” is a message of apathy, not discontent.

          “Not voting” is being OK with things as they are.

          “Not voting” is not taking every avenue possible.

          “Not voting” is nothing more than giving up.

          You should try reading my comment again.

              false. I vote every election, I dont vote for everything on the ballot, sometime i leave the ballot empty. two very different things

              So… You didn’t “not vote”. Cool. What I said. Awesome.

              I think there is some fundamental confusion here that I can’t go into your brain and point to.

              spend some time there and understand that there are many people willing to show up for the right candidate but wont show up for the shitshow that is the dem party currently.

              There are many things on a ballot, and many different dems. There are members of the DSA running under the dem ticket. There are members of the WFP running under the dem ticket.

              I will apologize only slightly for the caps here - NOT VOTING SENDS A MESSAGE THAT YOU ARE OK WITH ANY OUTCOME. Whether you want that to be the message or not is inconsequential. If you want to do something about the candidates, DO IT MORE THAN A MONTH AND CHANGE BEFORE AN ELECTION.

              If thats a message you are OK with, go for it.

              I’m not.

              Edit: mobile typo.
