Actually I'm starting to feel convinced the Democrats saw "The Producers" as inspiration.

"You can make more money with a ~~flop~~loss than a ~~hit~~win!"

As long as they keep losing elections, they can keep making money disappear (via laundering it). They sop up all the donations and laugh all the way to the bank, burning LITERAL BILLIONS OF DOLLARS on their cousin-in-law's "strategy consulting firm" and tons of completely ineffectual "vote blue" spam, and pay themselves six-figure "speaking fees".

The solution isn't to just stop voting, though. Voting is merely the least inconvenient, easiest to access tool in the toolbox and the people who left it unused are morons no matter how much ELSE they are doing ABOVE AND BEYOND that. Voting is the bare minimum; you have to do that AND local party organizing, civics, community engagement, nominating candidates for local races.

But if you don't vote TOO, it's like you neglected to wipe your ass. The stink follows you and embarrasses everyone with you.
