You're telling us not to be patriotic, not to vote and as well not to go for our right, choose the required leader we want, which we could also interpret that our voices should not be heard, we should just be without being under a government rule, maybe i will advise you on this, that you should just keep this to yourself, you don't have to persuade others and create a negative impression in them towards the leaders or voting process.
First of all, you should ask him the country he is from because I’m very sure that if he is in a country where things are not going well and the citizens what the country should change he will be among those who will first come out and vote, every individual has right to vote for his candidate and either you vote or not person must be voted and rule the country so you don’t have any choice, voting by yourself is what will make you have the right to prove yourself as a good citizen, you vote for a good person is your choice or you vote for a bad person is still your choice and if anyone wins the country is going to be rule by the winner so you don’t have a choice than to come out and vote to help the others.
We are the government because without the vote of the people they can’t become the leaders, although we all know that sometimes you stress yourself to vote and the person you vote for does not win, you as a citizen that votes know that you want the best for the country and vote for the right person and who you trust to be your leader, if you ask me this advice is not good at all, to vote is very important to every citizen in the country so let not discourage each for fighting for our right.
