Stay Home

“Getting out the vote” is absurd.

You shouldn’t need someone to tell you to go out and vote. If you do, you shouldn’t be voting.

You shouldn’t need someone to knock on your door and tell you to register to vote, assuming you’re an able-bodied adult American citizen. If you do, you shouldn’t be voting.

We all have the right to vote – and society theoretically loses if we don’t – but if the idea of voting doesn’t occur to you until someone comes on TV or rings your doorbell reminding you what day it is, you’re a damned moron and I don’t want you voting for the people who’ll be governing me.
