活该让他们选出川普，希望藉此刺激年轻人参与这次期中选举。取材自YouTube
美国国会期中选举即将到来，近期网路上出现一段被称为最狂的催票影片，名为「Dear
Young People, "Don't Vote"」，全片大用反讽手法，想要刺激年轻族群去投票，在
网路上引发热议。
影片一开始只见一群白髮苍苍，满脸皱纹的老先生老太太，和善的跟年轻人打招呼，但
没想到他们话锋一转，每个都轮流开酸年轻族群，讽刺他们对川普当选、富人减税、气
候变迁及校园枪击案都感到不满，但也只会在网路上抱怨，而不在现实生活中有所行动
；他们也奉劝年轻人别去投票了，就让这些每逢选举必投票的「自私老人」决定他们的
将来，继续过好日子。
製作团队NAIL Communications在影片叙述写道，「这个国家属于愿意现身投票的人。
你知道每逢选举哪些人必定现身吗？老一辈。但在上一场选举中，美国18到34岁的选民
中，只有46%的人有投票。」
这支影片是由挺美国民主党的团体「Acronym」所推出，一出炉就引发热烈讨论，「在
