Convincing the 2024 non-voter of the error of their ways is as fruitless of a task as convincing a Trump voter of the error of their ways.

The non-voter would have to accept the fact that their not voting directly contributed to worsening the situation and literally has gotten people killed, which they will never accept despite it being factually the case. They would rather continue to pretend they have an ethical high ground

This is no different than a Trump voter having to come to terms with the fact that their vote for Trump is factually the reason why they cant afford rent, food, healthcare, lost their manufacturing job etc. Likewise, the Trump voter will rather pretend that they did not do that to themselves by voting for Trump, and maintain cognitive dissonance as if the two things are unrelated
