Ah, you misunderstand. Allow me to be explicit: I did vote against this shit show. Donvict47 won by 1.5%, and 19 million fewer voters in that election. It was voter suppression that won that election.

    People not caring enough to vote isn't "voter suppression".

    And how do you feel about propaganda that encourages people to not vote? If the propaganda effectively stops people from voting, e.g. bomb scares at polling places, or you're not in a swing state so your vote doesn't matter, would you call that suppression? Just asking.

    You're comfused. 33% of Americans did not vote. To say you're part of that 33% means you didn't vote.

    They didn't say they were part of that 33%, they said they were "part of the 33% that said..." Which is a different third of the population

    That doesn't make any sense. Harris had 48.3% of the vote.

    33% didn't vote. That means 66% did vote. Of the 66% that voted half of them voted against Trump.

    Now, what is half of 66%? 33% is half of 66%.

    So the commenter is saying they are in the 33% of Americans that voted for Kamala.

    33% Trump, 33% Kamala, 33% no vote.
