      100%. People being disconnected don’t get a free pass. It’s an infinitesimally small number of americans who get to adulthood and actively participate in our society who don’t understand the very basic fundamentals of democracy and civics. Choosing not to take a side is still choosing a side whether they like it or not.

        Sounds like it was the majority of Americans in this case, since 60% didn’t turn out.
