In 2020 there were just under 2mil independent voters

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_and_independent_candidates_for_the_2020_United_States_presidential_election

So 1mil were added

The Dems had 11million votes less than what they got in 2020, the Republicans had 5mil less

We know Democrats don’t change to Republicans, and Republicans very rarely change to Democrats.

(Maybe) the 1mil came from democrat protesters, more likely they came from Republicans who don’t want to vote Democrat.

So either way the protest votes were still a drop in the bucket compared to the other 10million white men/women and hispanic men we can see from the shifts in voter demographics.

Im sorry you don’t like the data I’m observing but we live in a deeply bigoted country and it’s better to try to engage with that and fix it instead of feeling attacked.

Again… 90 million people didn’t vote at all. It’s safe to assume a large portion of them are a result of single issue non-voting protests.

It’s rare for more than half the country to vote.

They aren’t protesting, they’re apathetic

And they’re at fault.
