    Unless you mean “because they emigrate”, then they’re not that smart. By not voting, they acquiesce to whatever becomes policy. They silence their own voice. Pretty damn stupid imo

      Even if you vote you acquiesce to what’s in charge. It’s not like me voting for Biden will stop me being subject to Trump’s whims if he wins. It’s not like Scott Perry isn’t my fucking “representative.” That’s how government works: Whoever wins makes the rules regardless of how anyone voted, even if they didn’t.
