    “That’s the case with 90% of the people on Lemmy who tell someone not to vote.”

    can you substantiate it or are you just vibe-commenting?

          It sounds like it’s something that’s unfalsifiable in the absence of active disagreement and since it doesn’t fit with your idea of the world you’d rather attack it.

                  Also called an anecdote, an experience I was sharing with someone else, not to say I have conducted an experiment of scientific rigor and have arrived at this result but to say in my time here I have recognized this trend. Only I don’t speak like that because it’s plenty clear from context. Then you attacked it with your own anecdote. So I think the more interesting question is why it bothered you so much that I often find people engage in politics without useful context.
