It’s definitely not the majority but having spoken with my cousin and his friends I get it. Why even bother voting things aren’t getting better so why try? Voting for the best of the worst is just defeating as you know you’ll still be working 2 or 3 jobs just to put food on the table. Plus people literally can’t afford to take time off to go vote they need the money. Some of them are trying to support their sick parents or even kids.
This logic would apply in past elections, but when an authoritarian fascist is banging at the door everyone has a responsibility to actively hold it shut
