    I think some of those people have simply lost trust in the establishment and likely for good reason. I’ve known some kids that were put in horrible juvenile detention centres which caused them life long trauma, not to mention all the survivors of the residential schools in Canada; in those instances I can totally understand. To them I suspect filling out a ballot would cause them physical pain so when someone tells them to vote all they feel is revulsion.

    Outside of situations like that, I truly don’t know. Maybe a high degree of apathy and privilege?




















  • Bulgur wheat and whatever veggies you have on hand + whatever spices you fancy.

    Throw in 2 cups or so of the wheat, add your spices and the harder vegg (like carrots or mushrooms). Add water so it’s about 2/3 of the pot (you can add more if it’s not enough when cooking). Boil. Add softer vegg (like broccoli) after it’s reduced some if you want, or throw it in at the start if you don’t mind it falling apart. I usually add an egg once it’s cooked, but it’s not necessary; I just need the protein.

    Sorry I don’t have anything more specific, I do all my cooking by feel.

    AFAICT I can only get bulgur wheat at one bulk store in my city, none of the ‘big box’ stores carry it. You might also try smaller shops that cater to middle eastern communities.
