    The system doesn’t make sense. Everyone knows that. But it’s the system we have. So you either have to engage with the system to change the system. As we have historically done. Or find a way to overthrow the system to replace it with something better. something that has only ever been attempted by racists and in more recent times, twice by Republican fascists. Though not many share their limited idea of better.

    You want better choices? Don’t just vote every 4 years in the general. Vote every year in every primary and general. Don’t just vote. Campaign for someone. Don’t just campaign for someone. Run yourself.

      Someone has never heard of the French Revolution or the October revolution.

      Apparently only right wingers get to work outside of the system. If you’re a good person you work within the system. /s

      Peak liberal right here. “The status quo is what we have, no matter how horrible. What are you, some kind of right winger?”
