There’s as much reason to listen as disenfranchised voters have as much to say and because they don’t vote doesn’t invalidate it. A lot of black people didn’t vote when given the opportunity for the longest time for a multitude of reasons. Did their voice not matter then?
I’m saying that people who didn’t vote still have a valid voice to be heard where as you say ignore it. Sometimes those reasons are minor, sometimes it’s major that neither party fulfills.
When you choose not to voice you take your voice off the table because there’s no reason to listen.
That sounds like ignoring them to me.
If a party disregards you because you didn’t vote and there’s no one to represent your views, you’re disenfranchised. Democrats follow conservative fiscal policies that leave many people behind and measures to reconcile those differences are at best half ones. No one expects everything to be fixed today, but there’s some serious issues that need handling now neither party has tried to resolve.
That’s it, if you cannot be convinced disenfranchised non-voters deserve to be heard as much as voters leaves this at an impossible to surmount impasse. Democracy is about everyone having a say, even if they say no to what’s available.

No offense but are you comparing the struggles of leftists to the struggles of black Americans?

Im not saying to ignore anyone I’m saying why would a party go after a person who won’t vote anyways?
I’m definitely not trying to compare them to a historically oppressed and enslaved group of people.
