    So, your plan for fixing everything is for the left to stop voting so that the right can win and make voting illegal.

    Because that’s how it works.

    This election in particular has democracy itself on the ballot.

    It may be a flawed democracy, but the only other option is a fascist dictatorship.

    There are no other options because of First Past the Post voting. Literally. The math does not lie.

      No, my plan for fixing everything is to stop thinking voting fixes anything. Organize outside the electoral system and build dual power.

      Ah, the endless lie. The US will always remain a bourgeois democracy, ie a democracy largely in name only.

      It may be a flawed democracy, but the only other option is a fascist dictatorship.

      Fascism is Capitalism in decay, can’t get rid of fascism by voting it out. You will repeat this lie until the US pushes us into World War 3 or we die of Climate Change, unless Leftists succeed in saving the world.

      Math doesn’t lie, but you do.
