    If you saw someone about to get raped on your sidewalk, and you just went inside without defending them or calling 911, don’t you realized you helped FACILITATE the rape? Not voting is facilitating the other votes to matter more.

      so by not voting, they made the Democrats votes worth more, too.

        Correct, but you can make the “better side” votes count more than the “worse side” votes by participating. Sitting on your couch and not absolutely includes you in fault of the worse side winning, just like the rape scenario you didn’t comment on.

          I am not responsible for the bad behavior of others.

            no, you’re just responsible for not standing against the worse side, or can you still not tell which side is worse?

            As a citizen, hopefully of good conscience and morals, you ARE responsible for NOT doing good when you can. We all are, no matter how many downvotes you collect by arguing against this common sense fact.

              this is a stack of platitudes dressed up as a moral message.
