    I agree there is a lot of voter apathy. But I can appreciate the perspective, a two party system becomes about choosing the least shit candidate. The US has one more political party than North Korea, it’s the illusion of choice when the vast majority of eligible voters have no say in who those two candidates are. The system is flawed and the only people that can change the system benefit from the status quo. So while I don’t agree with it, I can appreciate people wanting to disengage from politics in the US.
