Voting is an illusion of choice. At best, you’re voting for a personality. Who voted for these flock cameras? Who voted for this war with Iran? Who voted for citizens united? I can go on and on.
It's real dumb to blame the long history of imperialism on one guy, but he didn't do jack shit to stop it. He supported genocide and the MIC like every other politician.
Nope, you are very wrong. Biden did a lot of drone attack as well. Voting keeps your attention away from actual problems. They are intentionally making voting results 50/50, so thay you think it may solve problems.
No, u
There are differences, but your questions are valid nonetheless. The two parties are a Venn Diagram:
We can vote on LGBTQ protections, DEI initiatives, abortion, separation of church & state, etc. because the two parties genuinely disagree on these issues.
We can never vote on wars in the middle east, the ever-increasing Pentagon budget, the ever-increasing ICE budget, growing presidential powers, Congressional insider trading, protections for whistle blowers, lifting sanctions on Cuba, closing Guantanamo Bay, the surveillance state, drone strikes, corporate bail outs, the growing wealth gap, etc. Where both parties agree there is no democracy.
