If you’re still putting your trust and faith in anyone to represent you and your interests within this system, you might have some lessons to learn yourself…
You can’t keep playing their game over and over expecting a different result.
Direct action, mutual aid, dual power, horizontal governing. Those are the ways forward, not yet another cycle of electoral theatre.
I voted for the frying pan in hopes of avoiding the fire. I don’t have faith in any of them, but there’s a spectrum of awful they all fall on and I’d prefer to at least hang out on the less severe end of it.

That end is an illusion, the “lesser evil” is there to manufacture consent for evil in general, and to help shift the Overton window to the right.
I’m not trying to have a go at you, I’m just frustrated and think people seriously need to be shaken out of this collective obedience to the rules of our oppressors. The existing system will never serve us, it is designed to do the opposite. If herr cheeto getting elected for a second term doesn’t do it, what the fuck will?
