just hand the keys to whatever dead-eyed car salesman or bloodless McKinsey creep is next in line and leave us alone. This shit just grinds endlessly on with or without our input
maybe if we ended the farce of "US democracy," people would stop being distracted by it and we could finally talk about how we could build a world it's actually possible to live comfortably in
how many times have you tried to talk about things that matter to you: wages, healthcare, education, climate, only to be told we can't talk about that right now bc "our candidate" doesn't agree or "can't" do anything about it, so mentioning it is bad for The Election (which is the most important thing, above all other considerations)
this awful machine that mindlessly, brutally, efficiently guarantees we can't even ask for changes that would improve our lives, never mind attain and keep them? You're telling me it's going away? Shit, what will we do?!
"if we don't have democracy, we will descend into mob violence and a police state. Basic functions of government will be no more. Infrastructure will fall apart"
