    One hundred percent.

    And I’m tired of people telling me to shut up and to trust that democracy will fix things.

    The game is rigged. We gotta flip the fucking table.

      I’ve never seen anyone saying to trust that democracy will fix things. I’ve seen, and been, people saying to always vote, but I don’t see anyone saying to only vote.

        I know some people who can’t accept that the system isn’t functional anymore, simply because they would have complete mental collapse at their powerlessness in the face of the present evil.

          I probably do too, but I don’t really spend much time with that kind of people. I prefer to surround myself with people who turn righteous fury into resolve.

        I see a lot of people say “oh so I should do nothing??” when they’re told voting does not matter. Seems like a whole bunch of people do just vote and put their faith in the electoral system.
