No worries, it happens.

Yeah, I basically agree with your first paragraph, but the point I was trying to make is that I do see people doing much else. I do know people who reject voting but spend a lot of time and energy doing organising and activism. Whether or not that applies to the other poster on this thread, I feel it's better not to overly shame people for not having voted. Life sucks and people rationalise the dumb stuff they do in all sorts of crazy ways. I'd prefer to talk about something more positive.

Mamdani seems cool. It's nice to see someone win on a straight affordability campaign without openly throwing marginalised people under the bus. Of course, it's NY. But it shows it's something we could unite around.
