Honestly, simply put, imo, no. The same rich and powerful are going to be in charge then. Even more so. I’d argue that the incoming government even guarantees that there’s no peaceful, legal, pathway to reform.
Multivariate analysis indicates that economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence. The results provide substantial support for theories of Economic-Elite Domination and for theories of Biased Pluralism, but not for theories of Majoritarian Electoral Democracy or Majoritarian Pluralism.
you haven’t responded to the myriad comments pointing out when we feel it’s justified to kill someone, like defending yourself and others or at times of war.
Even in self defense, to me, killing someone is last resort.
I get robbed at gunpoint: i give them my wallet.
I get attacked for reasons beyond my control (gaybashing for example): i’d try to run, as it’s usually a group of people. I’d cry for help. I’d try to inflict enough pain to get away.
I’m at war. I don’t want to be at war. I also noticed people larping here, like they want to be in a war. To me that’s crazy.
I get wormholed back to baby hitler: Wouldn’t kill him. Would encourage him often to persue arts.
More specific to this case: it’s not self defense if you stalk a person then kill them, in my opinion.
That’s incel turned rapist/murderer thinking, in my opinion.
I’m sure Trump’s concepts of a plan will fix healthcare in this country. Yup, definitely should have just waited for daddy Trump to give the healthcare industry a spanking. He’s definitely not a slimy conman who will just let the insurance industry line his pockets like every other politician.
Isn’t there going to be a very big change to US government come january?

And what are they gonna do except continue to line their pockets while we all suffer.
Most armed country in the world. Continue to fuck around and you will find out. I can’t believe it took this long.
Towards authoritarianism and dictatorship and away from democracy, yes.
So change is possible if you gather sufficient votes?
In the US? No.

So nothing is changing in january?
how can someone be so lacking in nuance? your world is so black and white lol.
my guy, you really need to think through things more, you’re so simple it’s mind boggling
So black and white that I don’t manage to appreciate murder, apparently :)
In my way, I see that as a good thing.

but if the president wears different pants than the previous president that goes to show voting can affect change
