You don't convince someone that voting is good by simply telling them that, especially when they don't believe any options that actually represent them or will improve their lives are on the table.

Between you and me, any adult that doesn't already understand the immense consequences of Republicans winning another election right now is not someone that acts on good faith, or could be relied on to make the right decision when the time comes. It is either complacency or willful ignorance. With FortuneCookie, it's clearly both.

That doesn't have to be revolutionary, but you can't always fight through well justified apathy with fear. There has to be something better and a way to achieve it that's different from what people are already doing.

I do what I can. No one can tell me that apathy is ever justified when literal lives are on the line. Never. Same thing with fearmongering.

Here's a reason based argument.

Trump won in 2016 and installed three lifetime appointees and now girls that have been raped have to travel state lines to get a rape baby aborted.

I'm sorry if you think this is fearmongering.
I don't call it fearmongering if someone tells me to leave a building that's on fire. That's just common sense.

If the "fear" I'm fighting apathy with is actual unalienable fact, then I would hope that would chill any sane person from the Republican party.

But it's clearly not enough.
