"Non-participation" does not mean inaction, just in case it needs to be said.
You cannot fix the system. If the second time Trump got to power didn't open your eyes, when are you going to call it? When they start undermining trust in elections? Pressure on officials to overturn results? Attacks on the press? Invoking crises to expand executive authority? Politicization of law enforcement? Purging civil servants not loyal to the ruling party? Undermining courts or ignoring judicial rulings? Scapegoating minority groups?

The vulnerable have been exploited for greed and profit for decades now by the billionaires. That noose has never stopped tightening, and you're trying to argue that we may inadvertently scald them when we burn the rope that's strangling them.
