I shake my head and wonder why, 89mil registered voters, 3x my entire country's population, were so apathetic, that they couldn't be bothered. And here you, albeit, the rest of the world, now are😢. It has me completely stuffed!

Unapologetic nonvoter. She can’t bother to do the bare minimum required of a citizen in a democracy.

47 was elected by a vast MINORITY because of the non-voting citizens. Therefore, we are all being manipulated by a small fraction of the collective. I for one am furious and rail constantly about non voting. It is the only price to pay for citizenship imho. 😥🤬😢🤬

80 million did not vote , that's a third of the voters.

And if they had all voted for Trump and his agenda?

Why has this been reposted verbatim by multiple accounts, and 3 times by you? Not that I disagree, other than the centuries of voter disenfranchisement and all.

I hear you, however, it's We the People, NOT, We the Oligarchs. It's up to us working folks to save OUR democracy.

I hear you. As Plato said thousands of years ago “apathy towards politics guarantees you will be ruled by evil men”. HOWEVER, the Democratic Party has not given people much to vote FOR since Bill Clinton and his Third Way transformed the party into a corporate “partner”.

Many have bought into the media lie of both sides are the same. They are intentionally low information & so do not bother. How hard is it to find out who the nazis are voting for and vote the opposite. I also know too many liberals that will not vote for anyone who as not been perfect since birth.

What you said would be somewhat true if we only voted for president. Our primary votes shape the parties. All the “Democrats suck” points are failures of the voters during the primaries. Then, voting for Congress in the general. An effective Congress would have removed Trump.

Votes always matter. Even blue votes on blue states: they feed mandates - or stop them. Sure, we can change the electoral college. We need to motivate people to vote. Stop helping MAGA.

There are local elections. I vote in NYC, a blue city in a blue state, but there are always meaningful choices on my ballot.

First time I ever voted was AGAINST trump, voted for Bernie Sanders, but ya know. Any other time he ran, voted against him. I hate him so much!

What's this? Cut and paste? I've seen this exact post in 3 different accounts. Perhaps the bots have come to Bluesky...

Me too!

💯

lmao

Maybe sic ICE on non voters since they don't act as American citizens anyway. It is a duty to vote!

Trump is deeply concerned that Renee Good's father, an ardent Trump supporter, may not like him as much now.

More concerned about this in the upcoming elections. Trump's disapproval ratings are no guarantee those unhappy Indys or Repubs will actually vote for a dem. I can see them saying " f*** it, I'm out" and MAGA is (once again) overrepresented.

I support compulsory voting on or by a holiday reserved for that purpose with a $50 bill as a stipend for civic service. Also, parties.

Same, same...

Passive vs active Im more pissed at maga

💯💯💯

This

Many Dems stayed home because they couldn’t vote for a black and a woman. The Dems have their own share of racists and misogynists.

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT

I agree. We must continue to convince non-voters to stop being complacent about their rights to US Freedom & Justice for All. Keep peacefully protesting & resisting Felon47 & his cult, but realize that your vote is your strongest power. Please vote in all local & Federal elections & 🌊🇺🇸💙VOTE BLUE!💙🇺🇸🌊

The ones who don't vote gave the White House to trump! Those are usually the ones who complain the loudest and are hurt the worst! They are....

That’s dumb. There are 80 million who voted for Nazis.

My special contempt is for the leadership of the Democratic party. They cost us two of the last three national elections. They think opposing super majorities of blue voters on big issues is the way to win elections because that's what their biggest donors want them to do.

So couldve the DNC by my account. So why vote for them! Because Republicans are deplorable? What a low bar for a society...

Voting in national elections is the trolley problem. We vote to do the least amount of damage. Or we vote to save the one we love - fuck everyone else. Or we do nothing and watch the carnage as if we could not have pulled the switch. Non-voters, you could have pulled the switch.

Once again, we should also be particularly upset with the Bernie or Busters, and with Bernie himself who lied his followers into believing "it wuz rigged" just as Trump picked up that same line and polished it a few short years later

Amen,sister

I think she’s addressing people who were registered and knew how, and chose not to vote. There is such a thing as right and y, and some people deserve to be shamed.

True

how would they stop it now when there isn't an election?

Very well put. Thank you. I’ve being saying this myself. People just didn’t show up.

People who don't vote are the biggest complainers when sh*t goes south. A lot of folks looking around for a savior now when they could've saved themselves.

I've had many argue to me that not voting was their choice. They didn't like the candidates, they didn't feel they had a choice in choosing them, they couldn't get behind them, they hate being forced into a two party system...it was a choice for some. Others said they lacked ID or don't do politics

Reading all of the excuses. So basically those complaining think the US is better under Trump ...

They can’t be bothered because they’ve committed their brains to sports stats from 80 yrs ago or movie stars from the talkies.

I think you have the most idiotic, uncultured, and illiterate president in the entire world. And the worst part is, he thinks he's the smartest.

I blame the horrible candidates

Democrats have been weaker than ever. Yes Republicans went Nazi. Democrats got Lazy.

Amen.

Or the ones that wrote in Doc Holiday or Joe Gibbs…the guys that died horribly on D-day say they really liked your trolling, they found it very amusing

If you don’t like any candidate, write your own name in or Donald Duck or Jesus! You can still have your voice counted and not go to any candidate. This would be more productive than not voting.

Yes. White women, are you listening? I heard now this regime is making it impossible for white women to get out of this hell. It sounds very suspicious. FAFO.

bsky.app/profile/did:...

elections are decided by money, not voters, but who could pass up an opportunity to blame your working class peers for the crimes of the aristocracy?

90 MILLION eligible voters didn’t care. Thats infuriating! Cult brain MAGA are unreachable. In a perfect world I would make voting mandatory, Election Day a holiday, end gerrymandering & end the electoral college. The EC has added to voter apathy. People understand their vote doesn’t really count

OMG. A sensible person who knows that absenteeism is the cancer of democracy? I can't believe it. Pinch me, I must be dreaming.

Yeah, I see the sumthin' AZ repeat posts the same a lot.

Yeah that's it. Hopeful in AZ.

Looks like she copy-pasted the original and set it to post at 11:00pm, 12:00am and 3:00am.

Agree

I hear you, and since talking to many of them, I’m glad they skipped as trump really would have won

Democracy is not a spectator sport... - as quoted by Thom Hartmann 5 days a week. #democracy #ThomHartmann whtts.. is you have to participate in democracy to keep your democracy , people!

Oh and the biggie! Maybe Democrats should stop playing to center when the strategy is turning out your base. Imagine if Democrats got behind popular progressive policies without fear of turning off “centrists”? I wonder what turnout would look like then?

You really need compulsory voting

But they "just don't like politics", "all politicians are crooks/bad", "dont care who's in charge", "wanna avoid all the uproar", "it doesn't effect them", "don't like the hate politics causes", "it's not important to them" and "always get crap for who they vote for" (Actual responses irl 🤢😒😵‍💫)

Exactly. The “ I can’t vote for Trump but I can’t vote for a Democrat” spinelessness is why we’re a global laughing stock and why we’re in the mess we’re in.

No, apparently they cant.

When I was young, I used to think I had the right to NOT vote. Boy, was I stupid.

Democrats and Republicans are owned by corporations... the same corporations that brought us wage slavery, imperialism, and now fascism. Maybe the wage slaves shouldn't be voting for their chains. Maybe they shouldn't be voting at all until there's someone who will actually represent them.

Too busy changing each other's diapers, perhaps?

💙💙💙 I know there’s so much to be said and so much to be left unsaid These are turbulent times, but we are here for each other and that’s extremely important 😘

Correct

Might've helped if the democratic admin had done a single fucking thing about it in the 4 years they had. Or Biden renegging on his promise of one term long enough to wipe out any chance for a real primary then literally installing someone no one outside DNC consultants wanted

I totally agree however in the last election where Trump won all the swing states I suspect something other than voter apathy.

They knew that their lazy lack of action would lead to a Trump presidency with all that would deliver to the world. They are complicit and should stand in front of a mirror and take a long, hard look at themselves.

I blame those that didn’t vote. Any fool can run for office …. And those that vote decide who will have the power. For those that refused to vote… did you really believe Harris was going to be worse than what we have now? I hope you never skip another election in your life..if we even have one.

Yes well my mother didn’t really like much about Trump but she voted for him anyway because she couldn’t vote for the Black lady. I’d much rather she stayed home and sat one out.

No, if those who did not vote in 2024 had voted, Trump's % share of the vote would have increased. And you have to win over those people if you want to have a hope in hell of preserving your republic. It is a battle for hearts and minds. www.npr.org/2025/06/26/n...

I’m angry with them as well. Could this be what’s bothering them?

We’re not voting our way out of this one. Vote of course but it looks like we’re gonna need a little more “last full measure of devotion.”

Not to mention the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision and self-serving power-mongers like Elon Musk.

I continue to be amazed at those who either voted Republican just because that's what they always do, as well as those who couldn't be bothered to vote. They handed this Country to Criminals and Conspiracy thinkers. Now we are going to have to physically fight to get it back.

The vote was rigged…fighting about who could’ve saved you all won’t help. You need solidarity now more than ever! The war against the people has started!

Right there with you🗽❤️A special place in hell for the non-voters. Just pisses me off the entitlement.

This is a fake/bot account!! GD IT! WTF BSKY?! I left twitter to avoid the propaganda manipulation bots and here we have proof of nefarious people trying to manipulate the narrative!!! This is absolute 🐂💩 bsky.app/profile/jame...

True alot couldn't get off their buts and vote for a black woman but more independent voters chose trump over a black women and that alone is what's wrong with the soul of America they knew who they were voting for.

All 90 million of them.

Angry? I downright hate them forever.

And don’t give me “give them something to vote for shit”. There was plenty to vote for. Particularly when we were also telling you what the alternative is. At this point I think the best way to save democracy is to focus on the middle. The far left is blue MAGA.

The days of being non political are OVER. Educate yourself. Choose a side. Your vote matters.

💙💙💙 truth

I agree. This is on all of the people who didn’t come out to vote. Did they think Trump 2.0 was going to be better? They listened to his lies and swallowed them hook, line and sinker. Maybe they will want to buy a bridge I have for sale.

Funny thing is, they don’t even realize it because the Pavlov News praise them as superior breeds and God’s approved their selective miracle breeding programs

You know who I blame (right in my handle). But yes, people who can't be bothered to get off their asses and to the polls in a year where a 34-count felon and insurrectionist sex offender is on the ballot are also to blame.

The ones I can't stand voted 3rd party to punish the country for not living up to their standard. We would live in a far better world today if no one had voted for Nader in 2000 and Stein in 2016/2024. Instead, because democrats weren't perfect, they chose to inflict fascism as our punishment.

I have been saying this very same thing to my family and friends many of them do NOT vote because they say that they live in a blue state and so their vote does not matter, because It is all in the electoral votes!

We should all be upset, but we should punch up, not laterally. We're all under threat from the same source. IDC who voted for who or who holds what office as much as who's fighting to change it. Cory Booker isn't. Chuck Schumer has invented an imaginary couple in his head to justify his choices

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Some Dems should change their registration addresses. If they change our districts; we change our addresses. My kids could change their address from my house to my mom's house (which is in a different district) & vote from there. They're there often. That'd be 4 more Dem votes in that district.

The non voters screw us all 🤬

You are right. Everyone forgets that Trump won by a mere 2.4 million votes. That's the population of Houston. Less than the population of Mississippi. Around 90 million American adults couldn't be bothered, as if the outcome would in some way not affect them. But please stay hopeful!

Let face it 77 m americans voted for this evil nazi. knowing he was immoral . But maga primarily descendenta of slaves or KKK -dregs of earth here in America. Be great to carve up US into union with blue states only. F em. slimy people in red states.

Yea yea yea we’ve heard this before.

The election was rigged by Musk to keep Traitor Trump out of PRISON where he belongs !! Do the math. Do you really think 11 million Democrats stayed home and didn’t go vote?

Calling Congressional Republicans and supportive business leaders cowardly or weak is generous. Assumes they're moral and patriotic, and therefore don't like all this, but are just too scared to do anything about it. Their actions, however, indicate that they're into it. Or at least don't mind.

GOP voters trusted their representatives just in case a fascist Nazi got in office.
