As I said, I voted for Harris in 2024.

I'm merely pointing out that the details matter. A blanket "refusing to vote is universally stupid" is a bad take, invented by liberals to project their inability to enfranchise people onto the very people they've failed to enfranchise.

I'm always very happy to talk about the details, and I tend to agree with you about this past year. But I don't begrudge Palestinian Americans who couldn't do it

so just to be clear:

you're going to deny your own voice and your claim to power, until centrists magically turn into leftists?

Arguing over why and how voting is good and not being able to vote is bad seems cause for some hope, and perhaps key to formulating plans (better than hope alone).

clarification for your words:

not being able to vote is completely different than choosing not to vote

absolutely no one holds a single iota against someone who cannot vote due to financial, social, legal, physical, etc limitations

in fact, it is all the more reason for those who can vote to do so, because the GOP will disenfranchise even more voters
