"i'm oppressed because of my political opinions" grow the hell up. oppression is when people target you for something about yourself you can't change. oppression because of political views is just people telling you you're an asshole and you refusing to listen

Any self-respecting leftist can see that voting is a civic duty. If you can't even vote for your interests at the ballot box, you've failed democracy.
