Hows it feel to simp for a party that can't get a 3% advantage on donald fucking Trump? If that was our only option and we are effectively voting at gunpoint then there never was any "democracy" to protect.

I love how democrats with no interest in catering to their base of voters are super effective at preventing third party and progress candidates from even getting on the ballot or in front of voters, so you can sit there keep saying they have no chance of winning. I love how liberals will excuse voting for the genocidal maniacs you're convinced are your only option because you're comfortable enough under this system that you're willing to work within it and turn your cheek to all of the violence it commits at home and abroad.

You only care when the genocide comes to your front door, what about your fucking neighbors who are getting evicted and thrown out of their homes because their housing is too valuable to somebody else's monetary interests to just let them live there in peace? What about the homeless, the working poor, the food insecure, the largest prison population on the planet who coincidentally are legal to use as slave labor? Are they not worth fighting for as long as you aren't the one on the streets, working for starvation wages, or in prison? In 20 years, are you going to get a "progressive" in office that will offer platitudes about actually treating those people like human beings as they do next to nothing about it? Capitalism requires us to live under the threat of homelessness, of imprisonment, of starvation. Our government is completely captured by capitalists who will not allow you to vote this away, because without this level of coercion their system will collapse. All they have to do is make you believe you are not being coerced, and if anyone is then they deserve it actually, and that is precisely the role played by our two parties.

A better world is possible, but it sure as hell isn't going to come about through any "solution" sold to us by those who collect vast power and profit within the world as it is. THAT is today's problem, the refusal to recognize where power lies and what interests it has. Not the third party voters who already see the system for what it is and always has been. Not the ones who are struggling to bring an end to this system that is designed such that its only material interest is in finding new ways to remove our rights and boosting candidates who will carry that out.
