I saw a discussion online lamenting the low v*ter turnout for a local election. They were trying to figure out why so few people cared.
I helpfully pointed out that the reason might be that people are tired of playing a rigged game.
I was immediately told to mind my own business and stay out of the conversation, because it didn't concern me.
Seems like I hit a nerve.
One person did ask why I say it was rigged, and I explained my reasons: you are only allowed to choose from pre-approved candidates, no real change is ever permitted, and "None of the above/abolish the position" is not the top, default choice on every ballot. I doubt that was appreciated.
Statism is a religion, and unless you believe with all your heart, they don't want to hear from you. Even when they ask questions, they don't want honest answers.
