People in the left, for some reason, tend to forget the fact that while they don't vote because no left-wing party is good enough, an army of intellectually challenged, propaganda ridden right wing voters are going to vote for anyone the right-wing powers that be decide to put in place, no matter how stupid, horrible, psychopath that person (and the whole organization behind them) is.

Where is your evidence of this?

That whenever people mobilize to vote, the more people go to vote, more votes go to the left. This and the fact that the most evident message fed to the masses is "voting is useless, all parties/politicians are the same."

Neither of those things are evidence, they are attempts to explain evidence, evidence which may or may not exist...
