Decisions are made by those who show up. That’s what it boils down to. I always see it like this: even if I don’t get the result I want, I’ll at least have the satisfaction that my vote cancelled out someone else’s who’s voting against my interests.

So make sure you show up, or someone else who DOES gets to decide for you.

What you are saying is voting to hurt your enemies, what the OP is saying is voting to help yourself. Its a difference of perspective.
