" …Bruce Phillips refrained from voting in the past, but in his case it was to make a point which probably did more good than his actual vote would have. You & I are not the activists and lightening rods he was...we need to vote. "

Yes. Utah Phillips' not-voting means more in the context of his life than me not-voting after Johnson's administration means in the context of mine.

(Is that perfectly clear?)

Not-voting in elections but "voting with his body" has made a point and had an effect that my not-voting didn't. I was just disillusioned and grumpy.
