That's a worthy question. In the UK it's the opposite. Young people can't wait to vote.
Ultimately it feels like a mix of young pettiness and ignorance. Yiung people need to understand that you can't be a passive participant in a democracy then complain when shyt doesn't go your way, n
That only usually happens when young people step outside the protection of their parents money and have to fend for themselves.
Hard to convince someone of civic duties when they dont have to want for anything.
Yup. And once they turn 40, got a home, family, kids, career, financial obligations, thinking about retirement, and find out how hard they're getting screwed by rules, policies and changes to laws that conservatives put in place these same fools will be whining about how "the last generation didn't fight for us" when you and everyone your age who could have made a HUGE difference decided you were too cute and woke to vote.
Now that political decisions are directly effecting your life suddenly both sides ain't the same no more, you ready to drop all that smart-dumb woke shyt and vote, suddenly reparations and a blacks-only policy agenda ain't the most important thing in the world when a racist Republican pledging to eliminate you and your families entire healthcare plan is running for President. Suddenly voting matters only when they're impacted. Until they have a home and a family to take care of they wanna enjoy their selfish privilege to be lazy, dismissive, yet loud and ignorant.
I honestly don't even expect social security to be around by the time you and I need it, let alone the next generation of adults that take voting as a joke.
Like I said, voting every four years and a few times between them is the LEAST, most effortless action any of us can take to be apart of our government, work to change things, and protect one another. And its' the people that can't even bother with that who think they deserve the most attention.
