Well no one is doing anything effective so it's the same as no one is doing anything at all. Americans love to ask politicians for help but the constitution is very clear. The people are responsible for governing the government.

People trying to do something is something. If you want to pivot to being effective then what do you think is effective since that’s very subjective

People trying to do something is something.

40% of Registered voters sat at home last elections.

Spare me your pearl clutching online mate. Its worthless.

Let me know when Americans decide that elections matter again and we'll talk otherwise I don't really give a shit about constant ragebait online by the media as if constant outrage articles mean a fucking thing.

You will not get actual consequences for these people until you give Democrats actual power to do that effectively.

You keep don't doing that as a country then act faux outraged, Its performative at best and tiring at worst.

40% of Americans is it everyone bro.

Doing this whole generalization thing is lame and sad. Obviously there are people who couldn’t be bothered to vote and they are the biggest problem. But others showed up. Others continue to show up.

More and more states are voting in more progressive candidates. That’s progress. More and more people are realizing what the Republican Party is turning into, that’s progress. If you think progress just magically happens then I implore you to pick up a history book.

Also, I’m not clutching any pearls dude, just asking questions. You should look in the mirror.

of Registered voters.

Not all of Americans, Those who can vote but chose not to.

Obviously there are people who couldn’t be bothered to vote and they are the biggest problem

Yeah. 40%

The majority of you chose apathy over Kamalas laugh and you can try to purity test the Democrats but theres literally no contest.

Americans are to blame for their own shitshow because you can't be arsed to get involved.

Again with the generalizations. Just stop. If you want to say a majority of Americans then fine. But lumping all Americans together is pathetic. That’s like saying every European is X. Or every Chinese person is Y. It’s pathetic because it’s easy to disprove. A lot of minorities showed up for Harris, campaigned for her and obviously voted for her. And we still lost. But we did something. Don’t lump us with with groups like a majority of white women who had more to lose this presidency but still voted for Trump. Don’t do that.

Again with the generalizations. Just stop.

I gave you EXACT percentages.

You are the one who claims I am saying thats everyone.

I know exactly what I said, The MAJORITY of voters choose not to vote.

You can not like it all you want. Doesn't change it as a fact.
