    Let’s fix your fixing of my analogy. Imagine the two restaurants you mentioned exist. Now imagine thinking the people who don’t go out to eat are entitled.

    And yeah, I know you’re going to tell me that elections have consequences for everyone, whether they vote or not, but most people who don’t vote don’t see it that way. Sure, a small percentage of them are withholding their vote as a protest, but most of them are working class people that are barely getting by. They’re not going waste what little free time they have voting for a candidate if they don’t think it will help them. So stop trying to shame them into voting and give them something to vote for.
