I can do two things at once and I am pissed, but they wouldn't be in power if people voted in the primaries.
The tea party showed us it was possible to oust incumbents in primaries if people showed up to vote. Fuck all of them and their ideas, but they did get their way with that tactic.
You’re still bought into the idea that the proletariat can vote their way into a better future and my lived experience says differently. Blue or red, things will only improve for rich white people because that is how the system is designed to function.
Trying to do the math on how voting for a dried up old husk who does insider trading and and says "We are capitalists", while speaking as the Democratic Party, is going to break our chains.
Does your lived experience include broad participation in the electoral system?
Probably not.
Because it hasn't been done. People buy into the myth that voting can't change anything so they don't try (15% turnouts) and it feeds the cycle. It worked for the bastards in the tea party. Just saying.
