Good point. But it could be the perception that elections are rigged,(cheating), contributes to voter apathy?
Or, perhaps they, (voters), still think today's democrats are not that different from Republicans, i.e. they (dems) love America and want what's best for the American people, so that the country would be safe in their hands ?
If this is true, people need to wake the hell up to what the democrat party has become-The Comunist Party USA (Same goals.)
Their (D's) goal is to destroy our Constitution, install an all powerful government, and take our freedom away.
Not only do they hate America and Americans, but they campaign in foreign nations for votes. Illegal votes mind you.
Tyrannical, controlling politicians, that you better not disagree with in any way, ruling over every aspect of your life, is their dream.
Why would anyone vote for that?!
If we were "allowed" to have the vigorous debate of ideas our Constitution calls for, the true demoncrat party would be exposed for what they really are and be rejected outright. No need for CWII.
But of course the demonic party knows this, so they, and their willing Useful Idiot (Look up this term) accomplices in MSM and social media do everything they can to block and censor any pro Constitution, pro American, Christian (or any religion), or Conservative thoughts.
You would think this alone would alarm citizens.
Does it occur to them that not "allowing" people to disagree NEVER ends well?
Finally, if we actually had a press, instead of our Goebbels-Enemy Of The People-Mushroom((Keep'em in the dark. Feed 'em bullsh*t)-Media, who were dedicating themselves to pursuing and reporting truth, no matter where it leads, we would be alright (much more tolerant),
in spite of disagreements
But sadly, what we have is a lying, twisting, censoring one sided propaganda tool that calls itself the press, deceiving and stirring up as much hatred as it can at every moment.
If it ever does come to CWII, they (MSM and Social media) will have been among the leading factors that caused it.
I hope it doesn't ever come to CWII. It doesn't have to if people will just WTH up to what's really going on.
I think the voter apathy today isn’t a result of any consideration or special awareness of the current political situation. I think a huge swath of the eligible voters today just don’t care one way or the other and are probably fairly ignorant of politics. We are the most entertained people ever, we carry little TVs around that let us see anything at anytime. As bad as either side thinks it currently is for different reasons, huge numbers of folks don’t, at least enough to deign to vote about it. Voting is a really, really low bar for civil participation. If we see a huge increase in turnout, to me that would be a solid and tangible warning sign. Like if eligible voter turnout increases 15-20% or so.
And I’m not saying things would be better off by any means if more had voted over the years. Probably the opposite is true, which is depressing and horrific in its own way.
I seriously doubt a civil war or even civil unrest can happen with the conditions we have now. Those conditions can change though.
