    not playing along in this fucked up democracy puts american people in danger.

    Yet playing along seems to have led to fascism. Voting clearly is not enough, we have to take action outside of the system. Our fucked up electoral system could not be relied upon before and it definitely can’t now with a fascist in office doing everything he can to rig it in his favor. We need more people to become disillusioned with our electoral system because it is dead now, and believing in the fantasy that we can vote our way out of fascism isn’t going to do anyone any favors.

      1. i am pragmatic enough to understand how to do my best to reduce the harm done on my innocent countrymen
      2. i can do this while supporting grassroots initiatives to change the power structure.

      what’s the outcome of mass disillusionment? are the Cool Socialists ready to replace the electoral system? because to me it seems way more likely that the Worse Fascists will benefit the most from mass disillusionment.
