MODERATORS
I've been taught people vote on their opinions, opinions form based on how the politicians resonate with them, and that in turn happens due to how good or bad they are.
Last year yielded only the most questionable choices for the presidency in the US. Is it any wonder some people didn't vote? Any politician that judges non-voters only hints at the kind of aura that may have caused them to lose in the first place.
If I don't vote, I'll get judged. If I vote third party, I'll get judged. If I vote for the person we're taught to hate, I'll get judged. What does everyone want? Non-democracy?
