> "If you are a-political you implicitly support what’s happening." Stop saying that. Stop stirring up people and instead let sleeping dogs lie. From a detailed post-election analysis posted on HN earlier today (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43400172 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43400172): "The reality is if all registered voters had turned out, then Donald Trump would’ve won the popular vote by 5 points [instead of 1.7 points]. So, I think that a “we need to turn up the temperature and mobilize everyone” strategy would’ve made things worse." Lots of people are indifferent or even supported what's happening and if your side continues to harass them they'll come out in even bigger numbers to vote against your side in the midterms or 2028. Hectoring people for being apolitical has been a losing strategy so stop following it.
