Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion

1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I am just trying to understand your logic of “I am unhappy with the government so i have decided to do nothing”.
My quotes are reflecting back your statement to show how it comes across. If you want to read it was sarcasm then thats your prerogative.
Your replies read as you feeling “holier than thou i don’t do politics at all” but instead coming across “I dont like the current elected representatives so I wont use the only thing I have to influence who has gets elected”
You can choose not to be involved in politics. But that choice means you have no right to complain about the result.
No. I'm not playing the "you started it" game. Yes I do have the right to complain, and don't put words in my mouth
Make no attempt to make your voice heard. use your right to vote in an election. You could even spoil your ballot
Complain about the result. which you did nothing about.
Right. I know that type of person.
Then I guess we nothing more to talk about
Then, have a wonderful day!
