        Direct action fixed a lot of issues historically. It can also fix the democratic process

          (yes) voting

          At least you acknowledge it. It takes civic participation & political organizing to get it done. It doesn’t just happen without enough voter activation & activism to get the right people on the ballot see it through.

            I mean, the biggest problem is that you can’t win if you make it to the ballot in most places. Because its not a democracy.

            Some places have rank choice voting. And in those districts, voting makes the most sense

      Stop blaming voters

      Now see here. I know exactly why Donald Trump is President and it’s because TikTok told my snot-nosed nephew to say “Free Palestine” during Thanksgiving.
