I finally kicked the Reddit monkey. Please forgive me.

So? Peoples feelings, don’t change the meaning of a word, and you are still avoiding the question. Why are you too scared to answer?

Not everyone feels it’s an obligation. Plenty of people don’t vote

So? That doesn’t address the question— it’s just a non-sequitur. And clearly you do believe it’s an obligation, because you did vote.

Now that you’ve acknowledged that your claims were false, why did you say them?

Nobody claimed that voting was compulsory. Just an obligation. Those aren’t the same thing.

So you know that what you said was false. Then why did you say that?

Rejecting the system by participating in it? And how does a candidate that will definitely never win “represent change“?

But that doesn’t apply to voting because voting isn’t a routine obligation

Voting is routine and an obligation. Brushing those one’s teeth is not “a moral or legal duty”. Your reasoning is flawed.
