There’s this one bit from Chomsky that is really good and it’s this - you can tell what the opinion of the masses is towards the government when it comes to pay taxes.
To stretch that a little bit further, you can tell how enthusiastic people feel about their political candidates by how many of them go out and vote.
Instead of yelling at people to vote, start yelling at the government to pass legislation to make voting more accessible (in particular making it a public holiday on voting day) and start yelling at your political party of choice to start running candidates and election platforms that people feel enthusiastic about supporting. Or don’t and let your shit hole country collapse. Either are acceptable options as far as I’m concerned.
