I wasn’t suggesting it should. Your comment seems to imply that if more people voted Trump wouldn’t have won. I’m asking how you can possibly know who those people would have voted for, particularly in the only states that actually matter in the presidential race, the swing states.
“Thanks everyone who didn’t vote for Harris” better for you?
I assumed that people would understand that “abstainers” was here to emphasize that those who abstained from voting also brought fascism to America, as compared to Trump voters, who we all already know are guilty for bringing fascism to America, but apparently that’s too complex to parse.
The idea that they would be Trump voters instead would not improve my moral judgment of abstainers.

Only the people who voted for Trump are responsible for Trump winning.
And everyone who stood aside and said “This is fine, I’m not going to do anything to stop it.”
Inaction is not absolution, as much as some people wish it was.
