      The entire concept of Voting boycott is idiotic. The premise being, “less of a problem gets me noticed!”, astoundingly resulted in the protest Voter being ignored.

          nope. Still lower numbers than the two established parties. However, what it would do is get the numbers high enough that the various monied and political interests involved paid attention to what those folks were thinking. Unlike the non-Voter whom everyone ignores as they don’t Vote.

          Your argument relies on hordes of people suddenly, magically changing their behavior in a cohesive and coordinated way. Have fun with that.

      Which ends up being an acceptance of the worst option, because the boomers who vote for Trump always vote every election.

      It’s a trolley problem. The trolley is flying down the tracks. The boomers are itching to vote for Trump.

      Standing by and doing nothing makes you complicit.
