    so many words just to cope that you got owned

    What are you, 12? Why would I be “owned” by a fundamental misunderstanding of electoral mechanisms?

    Name another “aspect of treatment”

    • Promoting progressive candidates in primaries

    • Writing your representatives directly

    • Becoming active in local politics

    • Protesting

    • Arming yourself

    • Building community and mutual aid with your neighbors

    • Unionizing your workplace

    • Collaborating with leftist groups to coordinate action

    And that’s off the top of my head. None of those actions are lessened in any way by voting for whatever the Dems put out in the general election, to keep MAGA out. Any other electoral action perpetuates the acceleration of fascism. We’ve got concentration camps and military in the streets, continuing to pretend that “both sides” are identical is just patently unserious if not deliberately in bad faith.

    Your turn. Answer the question: What alternative action is available at the ballot box that yields a better outcome? I think you keep dodging the question because you know you don’t have an answer. You’re either a shill, or a kid hypnotized by counterproductive idealism.
