      Sure lets not vote and make it certain Trump gets equal or more power. Even if you don’t believe change will come from the system, any chance to slow Trump down should be fully used!

      Thinking that you have support for a revolt when people can’t even fill out a piece of paper is peak levels of delusion.

        Ah yes, an entire population of people who have been disenfranchised by the system absolutely don’t have incentives to rally around dismantling the very institutions that oppress them. Obviously thinking so is delusional.

        K bud. Cool story. Just keep voting harder, cause that’s been working so well since fucking Reagan.

          You misunderstand.

          Revolution is often romanticized, but the US literally has the 2nd amendment and easy access to guns, do you see a revolt? It aint happening any time soon.

          “2A is gonna save us” is delusion. I’m not against guns, but its not remotely realistic to expect there to be support for revolt.

          You survival choices are either (1) vote and hope, or (2) you flee the country, don’t expect an uprising.
