I get that. You can just as well focus your blame game on the Democratic party and demand reform on their end. My impression is that that's a more productive way of going forward, because reforming the attitudes of the electorate is a much harder proposition.

Ps. I'm not downvoting you btw.

I don't worry about votes, particularly when the post came from a .ml user it's a given to be chaotic. Usually don't mark things myself much.

Working on the party should be constant and noisy and needs a full overhaul, but at the moment of decision refusing to act by staying home says to me that all the yelling before was just show because they didn't care enough to make a choice of 'better than' even if not perfect.
