    I and many others have tried to explain this to you people so many times that I don’t have the patience for it anymore, so I’m not going to take the bait.

    But you’re wrong.

            Don’t worry, you can take the path of the president you didn’t vote for, yet helped elect and deny responsibility for your own actions. Like at work when they ask you if you’d rather work all weekend without pay or with pay, and you don’t want to work the weekend at all so you just let everyone else decide for you. It may not be the best move, but it’s the best move you can bring yourself to commit to.

              I’m only responsible for my own actions, just as everyone else is responsible for theirs

                True enough, and while I personally believe that anyone who has an opinion (and an opportunity to act on it to avoid a collapse of the society they participate in) and fails to act on it is acting irresponsibly, it really doesn’t matter what I think, and it shouldn’t matter to you. Yet if you come into a politically charged and admit to being proud to have not voted, I suspect you expected some judgement to come at you.

                  if you come into a politically charged and admit to being proud to have not voted

                  that didn’t happen. you’re making leaps of logic.

      I and many others have tried to explain this

      And you all fail every time because you’re just wrong

      Tell me, the millions of people who didn’t vote in California, who did they “vote” for by being silent, given the fact the electoral votes of that state went Dem, as everyone knew would happen?

      If non-voters are equally as responsible as voters (a stupid notion to begin with but let’s roll) then you have to take into account where those voters were or you’re obviously just looking to blame people
