Hell, a good chunk of the citizens vote for people that don't support their lives or values. It's fucked top to bottom.

That good chunk would be democrats and republicans

I don't disagree. The only real power us peons have is voting, and we are really, really shitty at voting.

We are not shitty at voting, we are shitty to keep supporting the right wing duopoly. Not voting is a choice, and voting 3rd party is a choice. If the 76% of democrats that do not want Biden to run voted 3rd party they would win. People choosing to vote their fears instead of their conscience is whats holding us back

Otherwise described as: being shitty at voting.
