    yeah lmao

    I guess if you are a lib who's voted in the past or is voting for other races then she's not counting you as a non voter. But if thats the case all the logic about why non voters don't matter and can't affect anything doesn't really apply to you. The argument basically boils down to "dems won't listen so you shouldn't even try. Just bully them left once in office" as if that's a great proven tactic. It fundamentally is logic based on the idea that america is to some degree Good, right now, and so we should just try and do a heckin civil rights movement over and over until it's BetterTM. Except the material circumstances and varied tactics of the civil rights movement era aren't given sufficient study, and the dems are considered to be more or less On Our Side, if we just give them the right push, not fundamentally opposed to almost everything left-libs want, let alone communists.

      yeah, basically this; furthermore, following the logic of the video, the dems will only listen to me if i vote republican, basically, cause then they'll actually try to appeal to me, the ratchet only turn right it seems
