You’re completely failing to see that people refusing to vote are not people who “don’t give enough of a fuck”. Sure, there are apathetic people out there, but it’s a gross simplification to think only people who care vote. Or that people who vote care. For many, that’s their one and only participation in participative democracy.
Would you argue that Alan Moore, who wrote Watchmen, V for Vendetta and other cult and politically relevant graphic novels, does not “give enough of a fuck to use his voice”?
If people don’t give enough of a fuck to use their voice then why should I give a shit what they have to say?
Nothing isn’t brave, it’s nothing. If someone decides that they don’t matter then I’m inclined to agree with them.

OK, I think you missed all the points I made. Never mind.
