Those downvotes you are recieving: they are the point of all of those Disney and Marvel movies. The good guys win, don’t worry about it. If you just ‘do the right thing’ things will turn out ok. The system works. Justice exists and is inevitable.

It never occurs to them that people have been voting this entire time and the result of that is what we have. Voting isn’t enough, its not enough, and its not clear it has any real impact whatsoever. If all voting gets you is delay and Joe Biden, what then? Its always the same tired “Vote Harder”, “Vote Blue No Matter Who” line of crapola, a line of crapola those espousing don’t really have a critical assessment of. They don’t really have an answer for systematic change, or answers for when institutions like the DNC decide that your vote just shouldn’t matter, as in New Hampshire, or the 2016 primary?

The fact is voting isn’t working and it hasn’t worked since the Supreme Court overturned the 2000 election of Bush V Gore. These strategies aren’t working. If “voting harder” worked, we wouldn’t be here right now. But these debutantes who think they know shit and are clicking the down button can’t imagine another way. So the react, in the same reactionary way the right wing does.
