Sweden, there is a specific paper you take among the options that says blank vote, you can also put in slips with blank votes when there is options to check on a public vote and it will be tallied. When many blank votes are cast, it could basically invalidate any of the other options too meaning we need a new one
Could you clarify how not voting is specifically a fascist statement?
Like what if there aren’t any fascists on the ballot? Or why would not voting only be a vote towards fascism rather than towards libertarian, anarchism, moderatism or any other kind of “ism” out there?
The US doesn’t have a parliamentary system. It is winner take all. There are no votes of no-confidence. There are no coalition governments. The winner of the electoral college which is NOT popular vote gets full control with no oversight.
If you vote for a party that does not win, you get zero representation, not partial or proportional representation.
Abstaining does not mean “you are okay with either option” abstaining is a vote for people not having a choice.
Idk if it is same in us, but we have what is called blank voting, which is a vote that could be that. But not voting is a fascist statement.
That’s interesting! What county? How does blank voting work? I’m wondering how I’d do that with my US voting machine. Not that I would, but I wonder.

Because you wish people had no say in how they are ruled

So abstaining truly does mean you don’t care.
I don’t even think it’s a democracy
It most definitely is NOT. It’s a oligarchian theocracy at this point and deserves to crumble.
