"The polls look good so I don't need to vote"

or

"The polls look bad so why bother voting"

Notice that in both lazy rationalizations the desired effect is to not contribute

No, you #vote

You always vote

Perfection isn't on the menu

Cynicism is acceptance

You only improve our world by participating

Not participating serves nothing but entitled self-regard, and effectively says "I don't care if #fascism rules"

You *say* you care. But do you really?

The proof is participation

a hand drops a slip with the word "vote" on it into a box
