This type of thing goes through my head constantly. Im kinda surprised trump is even trying to hide epstein given how well just breaking laws and being openly corrupt has been for him/they/them.

agreed on both.
the impact enabled by the people with the influence/finances coupled with the lack of self responsibility to inform yourself create uninformed voters and non-voters.

the only voting choices people make are either diet-fascism or full-fat-fascism; the only way voting can make a difference is for people to vote for an alternative.

Whether she did or didn’t doesn’t matter. If we ever want an alternative to ever succeed we must first act as if their success is viable and grow their base.
If we concede defeat before we ever see results then others will never want to throw their lot in with us.
Though, personally, I believe the entirety of the electoralists, democratic republic a failure of a system that, intersectionally with capitalism, intrinsically is designed to oppress the working class by reinforcing an arbitrary hierarchy of control but that’s a very long winded argument, it’s 4:30 in the morning, and I have yet to sleep.
All I’ll say is people should be more focused on local elections and building dual power in a way that your local electorate can actually see affect their lives.

it’s a chance to save your democracy by preventing the bigger parties from going to the right like they do in the united states.

you’re witnessing in real time what happens when we don’t in the united states w both the republicans and democrats kowtowing to trump.
… educated or not, an american citizen is only allowed to vote between selected bought-and-paid-for candidates representing only the interests of the ruling class.
Dems sued to keep De La Cruz off ballots in swing states, didn’t bother with reliably Republican states.
americans have more choices than democrat or republican; but they don’t chose the alternatives out of a combination of peer pressure and propaganda.
is it your stance that it is only peer pressure and propaganda that keeps other parties in the us from being viable? if not, what other barriers keep the two major parties in power?
there’s a lot more and the next largest barriers are voter suppression and both of the dominant parties engaging in legal maneuvers intended to diminish the ability for people to vote for any alternatives.
