I've been seeing a lot of anti-voting sentiment going around. Can't believe I have to say this, but you need to vote. Not only is there more to the election than just the president. (State policy, Senate, house), but not voting is not an act of protest. C'mon guys

its funny(?) how i only see posts criticising ppl for not voting/voting third options but i dont currently see anyone actually advocating for doing that

Might depend on how you sort or what instances you have blocked. I've seen a few personally, although not in blahaj.zone as far as I can remember.

Not vote squad was in this very apartment😞

It depends on defederation and users banned from this instance (lemmy.blahaj.zone), instance blocks don't have any affect on user visibility, just communities and posts to those communities.

There are multiple people advocating for it in this thread...
