Coming here to argue about voting will result in a ban.

Strawman.
I hate linking to this site, but there’s a discussion here about how simply naming a logical fallacy isn’t an argument:
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/mn3rgy/is_their_a_name_for_the_logical_fallacy_of_just/Whah else am I supposed to write? They're just trolling with a strawman.
In what way?
In the way that "I don't like the candidates, therefore I'm sitting out this election" is not the argument?
I'm not saying that no one is like that. But that's by far not a comprehensible view on the people who critigize voting in a liberal democracy.
They didn't want to discuss. They wanted to troll.
The only one i see trolling is you
Having a different opinion than you does not equal trolling.
