If you acknowledge that voting is pointless, why do you do it?
Is it because the mouth-pieces of government power laid a guilt trip on you?
When there's an option to fill that government position with no one, it will be worth my time. Until then, nobody's gonna make me feel bad for refusing to choose which cronies benefit most from the money government stole from me.
The United States isn't a democracy, no matter how much you want to believe otherwise. It's a constitutional republic. If less than half of the voting-age public actually shows up to vote, and roughly half of those each vote for two equally-evil scumbags from the two major parties because they've been brainwashed to believe that anything else is statistically insignificant, we don't actually achieve majority rule like so many fantasize. Take the last presidential election. Less than half of eligible votes voted for the two major candidates combined. Keep telling me your vote counts but somehow if you vote for a "third-party candidate" your vote doesn't matter.
So I've collected some stickers that more accurately reflect the utter futility of this ritual most of my fellow Americans desperately want to believe makes a difference, despite over 200 years of evidence to the contrary. You know, that government you keep insisting take care of you as if you're a fucking child - the same one that legalized slavery and internment camps and Jim Crow, etc. etc. etc.
