Simple answer, and totally grassroots.... Get the vote out locally. Individually. That's what little old folks like us do. Encourage voting. Work to "get out the vote."
Are you "apathetic" now because of a silly social media post? I wager not. All politics -- local, national and even international -- is still local.
And, because I was curious, welcome to FR -- "Since Jul 7, 2026" Almost three months now. Good for you.
Overcome apathy by actively getting out the vote. Locally. Family. Friends. Neighbors. Individually.
The fixation on duration is truly bizarre here. It seem it’s nothing but another reason to dismiss something you don’t agree with. But please do let me know at what point I’m allowed to have an opinion that, coincidentally. seems to be shared with many people who have been signed up as long as I’ve been reading here. Do let me know what the rule is there.
I’m not apathetic because of a “silly social media post”. Voters are because they see non stop childish behavior and nothing that focuses on the issues they face day in and day out. Trump won on affordability. No matter what someone might want to say it hasn’t really gotten any better for most people. Food costs are still up. Energy has shot back up. Instead of doing what is needed for that we get “Nah all that is way down” like we can’t see it with our own damn eyes.
Get out the vote? Not happening until people feel like anything that matters to them matters to the people up top.
