FWIW, I'm not going to debate the merits of not voting b/c it's legitimately the dumbest shit ever.
If you care about our Republic, you vote. And if you don't vote, you don't care about the Republic.
It's really that black-and-white to me and everyone I care to associate with.
And that's especially true when EVERYTHING is on the line. Remember, it's not just about us; we have children and future generations that are relying on us. And when you abandon doing your part to help protect them and their future, you're essentially telling them to F' off... and that's why it's personal.
So, yeah. I don't give a crap about whatever challenged logic someone uses to explain why this is a good plan. It's not. There's no way to justify withdrawing from the fight when the enemy is at the gate, coming for you, yours, and everything you hold dear. There are no second chances or do-overs here. This is it.
Note: Those who do decide to go down that path should know they are forever branding themselves as of no consequence moving forward. You will have earned 'persona non grata' status.
And, no. There's no coming back. Especially if you're actively working to convince others to follow suit, b/c that's truly beyond the pale and subversive.
I said what I said.
