> "I'm not voting because <strange expectations about other people doing it for me>." sounds absolutely absurd.

It is a mistake on the younger generation's part to expect sanity from elders - this is the reality that they are not taught as kids. That's why we have geriatric pedophiles ruling the country. And this will not change because the geriatric pedophiles are trying their hardest to destroy education in large swathes of the country.

> We're on our second Trump administration now, but someone assumed someone else would vote the way they wanted for them?

Yes, because that someone was likely a kid 8 years ago - literally could have been 10 year olds. They don't have the knowledge, education, experience that a 70 year old boomer has. And the 70 year olds are making sure the misinformation continues so that the newly minted 18 year old votes against their own interests.

This is literally the southern republican playbook. You don't need to buy my argument. You only need to accept that boomers have sabotaged for far longer before the 18 year old even had a chance to cast the first vote.
