Lmao they just changed the title of the piece from “Why I don’t vote” to “Why I won’t vote” rather than tell readers that the guy actually does vote

It wasn't just the headline, he lied in the article too. And they didn't even bother to change that. Only with the most slimy mental gyrations could you claim that this meant "I always voted but I'm not planning to next time". What he wrote implies that he put it into practice already.

Anyone who believes that the worst outcome for our upcoming election is trump regaining the Oval Office MUST vote in a way to prevent trump from winning. Right now, that means voting for Joe Biden, who is a good man and President. 330M Americans can't have their perfect candidate. EVERYONE VOTE!!!!!

I've read the NYT daily since I left home at 18, over 30 years ago. It will make canceling my subscription a difficult. But that piece plus how Ukraine and Trump don't seem to be worth being above the fold makes it far less difficult.
