You’re brainwashed. The system is the problem. They want us peasants playing the imaginary game fighting with each other instead of unifying and making real change. You’re a pawn.
The Democrats aren’t making any real change though. They just patch things up for the next Republican to ratchet us further to the right. If we want change we’re going to need to change the democratic party first.
You really are missing the point. Local elections reach up into higher elections. Vote for more liberal mayors, more liberal DAs, more liberal Congresspeople, and more liberal senators. The more liberal they move, the more liberal the overall party becomes.
If you’re not either participating in politics by voting, running for office or campaigning; or actively attempting to overthrow the government, then you are accepting whatever government we have and whatever government gets voted in.
There’s nothing morally wrong in voting for the less-bad of available. options now, while still working toward changes that give us better choices in the future. If nothing else, if you really cared about how this country and world runs, you would at least be voting for whoever you think will give you even a SLIGHTLY better chance of allowing or enabling the change you want to see.
The absolute least useful thing you could possibly do is throw up your hands and give up and not participate. As a matter of fact, that’s exactly what extremes on both ends of the political spectrum want you to do. The fewer people who participate, the easier it is for them to get away with all the money and power.
It’s the opposite. They need your participation to keep the machine churning. The more you care about red vs blue the more money they make and the longer the system prospers with little real change. Another 4 years of Trump is what the Democratic Party needs to get off their asses (no pun intended) and actually give us somebody who’s gonna make real changes.
It’s all business, you’re the consumer and our lives are the currency. If you’re not buying what they’re selling, they’re gonna need to give you what you want.
They need your participation to keep the machine churning.
You are 100% incorrect about this. The system will continue regardless of your participation. Sitting on the sidelines and pouting about the rules being bad does nothing but make you look like a child.
They actually made no argument. Just pointless attacking so no logic argument to be a fallacy. Somehow that’s better? Good on them.
If they had made an argument and qualified it with “because you’re an idiot”, that would still be as hominem. Does not have to specifically be about somebody’s character.
You are the problem.

Unifying and making real change means coming together and voting against the fascist that’s going to make everything worse.
Feeling righteous about not doing the one thing that can actually help is immature and stupid.

And that happens by voting in local elections
Sure. Let me know when Biden is running for my local congressional seat so I can not vote for him there too.
You really are missing the point. Local elections reach up into higher elections. Vote for more liberal mayors, more liberal DAs, more liberal Congresspeople, and more liberal senators. The more liberal they move, the more liberal the overall party becomes.
I’m really not. You’re just assuming things.
Ad hominem. I don’t participate in fear based politics or hate based discussion. Try again.

I don’t need to explain to you how change happens, but it’s not only continuing to play their games. Ever heard of a boycott?…
You’re a fucking moron.
Nice not-fighting there, idiot.

Ad hominem is when you try to attack someone’s ideas by attacking their character instead. I’m not doing that. I’m just calling you an idiot.
That’s not the definition but using ignorance to fit your narrative just like a politician. Nice.
