I love this. It's a perfect example. If we manage to continue having elections is on the ballet. It's actually in question.
The other side being crap is completely irrelevant at that point. It's absurd that I of all people am telling you to vote for Joe Biden, who I don't agree with about anything. I think Bernie was too to the right for me personally.
Do there need to be fundamental changes? Absolutely, when you can't vote for anyone at all it's going to be much harder to affect the change you want.
I disagree.
An end to the farce that is democracy in America would actually make it easier to affect change, because we wouldn't be wasting time yelling at each other to vote anymore and could actually focus on direct action.
