when someone from outside of america abused by your representatives comes and says you have culpability of what your government is doing, you can say: "no, i am in captivity, the taxes i pay to it are after a gun was held to my head, it is a tyranny and i do not vote even though they expend all of their power to get me to do so". not only am i not represented by the government, what the government does is not me, in the say way a ball is not represented by those who use it as a weapon. by not voting, you can rest every so slightly easier at night, that the crimes committed in your name, if formally brought against you, can be dismissed credibly.  it's not me, i'm one of its slaves. i do not vote, even if i knew my vote had impact, i still would not, because that would make me accessory to its mass murder.
