      You just did. Not commenting would have been not doing politics.

      Its like voting. If you don’t vote, you’re not doing politics. If you vote blank, you are doing politics

          If you don’t vote, you don’t have a say. This is how democracy works. If you want to make a statement vote blank and then you can list your reasons. Staying away is not the same as a blank vote

        Mmmm disagree on the last bit though. In a democracy, if you don’t vote, that’s still a choice. The choice is apathy and acquiescence, but that is nonetheless still a choice.

          Of course its a choice but not voting shows your choice of not being interested. Voting blank shows your engagement but your unwillingness to choose between the options given.

          Basically and oversimplified.
          no vote = i am ok with whoever wins.
          Blank vote = i am not ok with any of the choices
