Which says they’re either not clear on how this whole “government” thing operates (which, tbf most people aren’t) and/or too young to have had experiences with government much before, and/or deliberately parroting a talking point designed to depress turnout for one of a few reasons.

It’s that last one that seems most in evidence unfortunately. And mostly from people who don't seem to remember 2016 that well.
