    Oh, I’m not saying that young people need to vote more often. They definitely do, and that’s part of the problem. What I’m saying is that it’s not all of the problem.

    That being said, in my state (Iowa) the state seems to do everything they can to get young people to not vote. And if I’m honest, that’s not just the Republicans trying to push that.

      Sure but when we’re being outvoted by a 2:1, sometimes 3:1 margin, that’s on us.

      It’s sort of like voter ID laws, they matter but really, mostly on the margins.

      At the end of the day, it’s our future, our mess and our fault if we don’t vote. Yes, it’s harder but goddamn, the world burns and people die because we don’t go and vote.
