I don't consent. Voting signals consent.
I may have to go along (with laws) to get along for the moment, but I'm not about to take a bunch of action (like voting) that signals that I am voluntarily participating in the system.
It's _especially_ bad when the politicians start dangling attractive carrots in front of your face. By voting in that scenario, you're capitulating "Well I guess if I **agree** with the state in this instance then it's not so bad..." No, fuck that.
That's how they play the permanent duopoly game. And keep the population rivalrous and divided, insuring the state and the current duopoly is never shaken.
