abstaining from voting for genocidal geriatrics is doing the right thing. it's an end in itself.
So the 66% of the population who don't vote for no particular reason at all are, "doing the right thing."
that's a leap of logic
It's functionally the same. All you've done is exclude yourself from the system just like what the majority of people do every cycle.
that's a consequentialist view of ethics, and one to which i don't subscribe
Oh, so by your own admission you are ignorant. Good to know.
nonconsequentialist ethics are strongly preferred by professional philosophers, so someone here might be ignorant, but it's not me.
Professional philosophers! Oh, I'm sold.
they're the experts on ethics
They are! They are professionals!

No it isn't. You're not standing out or standing up. Nobody knows the difference why you stayed home and let Trump get elected.
the individuals who abstained for moral reasons know.
And don't affect change. You might as well never have been born, as far as your impact. So it sounds like this is actually only about your moral high ground. That's cool. Means nothing when Trump is president. Brilliant plan.
doing the right thing is always right.
Anonymously throwing away your vote in possibly the last free election, to prove a point, and not have more elections, is the right thing? You're batshit.
it's not to prove anything. as you said, I'm likely the only person who will know.
To be clear, you're not ENTIRELY wrong. But don't attack other users. Removed, rule 3:
