“Honestly there’s no point in voting”

Buddy, Pal, Amigo-

Like it or not we are all on a bus headed to go right off a cliff, and voting is the only way to avoid careening off the edge, by either stopping the bus, or slowing it down long enough to find a solution.

Some people will knowingly vote to drive off the cliff. :/

If you, and every other person with your mindset, think it’s ok to abstain from voting it’s the same as voting to go off the cliff and die , because like it or not, the people wanting to drive off the cliff will vote to do so.

Don’t let other people tell you voting doesn’t work or change things, it. does.

We have been so conditioned by false media and propaganda to normalize cynicism in politics that we have come to believe that our choices don’t matter, that our voices shouldn’t be heard, that we should be ok with all the wrong things in our society, and anything or anyone saying otherwise is villainized and stigmatized

And maybe you might have a point in your cynicism, it might really all just be that bad….

but the fact is- would you rather at least TRY and stop the bad things from happening by voting, for your future, for the future of your family and friends, for the sake of being able to say “I Tried.”

Or would you rather just sit back and let the bad things happen because “there’s no point?”

(Don’t forget the big election isn’t the only one that counts, the small elections matter too)
