Being “apolitical” and not voting simply means that you escape the responsibility of choosing your future, delegating to others, and making them decide for you. That is being a slave of the majority.

Voting is pointless, there is no "Choice", there is a uniparty system🤷🏻‍♂️. Still, enjoy your vote though!

Then, Let us the majority decide your future.

Not mine my friend, I'm from The UK, there is the illusion of choice here too.

Specially in authoritarian governments like the UK where post memes now is punished 😂 not participating in politics is surrender to them.

I chose not to engage in the system. I'm ungovernable.

You scape from participating, that is clear. Nonetheless, you are under a government, subject to the laws and whims of the government, chosen by others, beside the fact you pay taxes in one or other way.

Being ungovernable is fine for making memes and promoting bitcoin, but it is impossible to escape the system without violence, as happened with the American Revolution.

When I say I'm ungovernable, I am exactly that. You have no idea who I am or how I conduct my business.

That’s been anonymous, not ungovernable. And if you have a “legal” business I assume you pay taxes that your government imposed to you. So there is nothing such as ungovernable. You pay taxes and obey the system law.

Well my friend, you're making an awful lot of assumptions there. I won't elaborate, I'll simply repeat, I'm ungovernable🤷🏻‍♂️.

Haha ok ! Assumptions yes, but most likely true assumptions that make that “ungovernable” just a dream of the tax payers.

I think the counter-argument would be that your vote does not actually have any real impact anyway. It is merely an illusion that it will and one that keeps the current political parties in power.

Not that I agree with that but a I think what is posted here is not a particularly good argument for voting.

You do realize that the current political parties actually vote themselves tax money to fund their campaigns?

I don't think that a feasible counterargument is to simply pretend or deny that something is relevant or even non-existent.

Speaking of a functional democracy, going to vote is something real and can determine a path to follow, both economically and socially, that is not an illusion in any sense.

Now I do not defend any politician or any party, the government is always the enemy, but escaping from your responsibilities is not going to make them disappear, at the end of the day they will rule you anyways, so the most responsible thing is to choose your poison.

Only in an established dictatorship votes not count and are an illusion, which I do not think is still the case in the United States of America.

That story that voting is useless and is a waste of time was implemented by governments precisely to make us lose faith and hope in a political and social change. The goal here is to give your opinion and be responsible for what you consider is the best path for your and your family’s future, just as you would not leave your children in the care of a stranger, the same thing happens here.

You should not be a slave to the majority opinion and surrender to that.
