It's statistically very unlikely for one's vote to ever make a difference and as such there's no use following politics enough (basically a mixture of rage and misery lol) to form an opinion and then go out to vote.

Common arguments against:

"What if everyone thought that way?" - So what? Then my vote would be more likely to make a difference

"It's a moral obligation"/"people died for your right to vote" - Essentially just guilt tripping. Abstract symbolism without a practical reason to vote

"There's no other way to get your voice heard" - Then there's no way to get my voice heard
