Vote lesser evil until you have proven progressive candidates
The ones that keep moving right when the right never moves left? Revolution is inevitable, suffering is increasing by degrees; we’re just kicking the can down the road with “lesser of two evils.” Unless we’re hoping human extinction happens before then, I guess.
If revolution does happen, which ideologues do you suppose will much it off, and which ideologues possess arms and know how to use them?
My suggestion is stop talking down and at those who don’t share real forward thinking policies. We start with what we agree on: this is a corrupt system. It doesn’t matter which side is “more corrupt,” corruption is corruption.
Time after time, I start asking questions when obviously flawed logic is introduced: if cutting taxes is so great, why are we struggling to pay mortgages? Why do teachers make less than record label artists? Why are roads and bridges in such shambles?
Why can we be engaged in over 100 wars, conflicts, skirmishes and “expeditions”, as well as funding global armed conflict, but you can’t afford health care with military insurance and Medicare? Why are we living on fake cheese crackers in packets and overpriced cheap ramen? Why do big food conglomerates and utilities conglomerates get such big subsidies and we’re paying more? Why can’t we get real humans online and on phones to get customer support? Why can’t I repair my own tractor/car/phone/laptop without voiding warranties or it being a criminal or civil offense? Why can’t I download software that’s not in Google Play or Apple store?
And when those answers are incorrect, we look it up together. It’s not generally like online, you can see the light come on, in the eyes.
There are exceptions. They have been far fewer than online.
