Both. We need both. Voting matters. Grassroots organization matters. Now is absolutely not the time to give up on democracy. It is also absolutely not the time to give up on mass organizing at the grassroots. Both, we need both.

We need direct democracy. What we live in is no democracy at all, they choose for us and then we just pick the worst of two evils.
