The right answer is to end the stranglehold. I live in a blue state, so being utterly unrepresented (and it not mattering much in the cogs of the machine) has been my default since 2016.
Honestly, my opinion of this country since our two party system installed Trump for the first time BECAUSE the Democrats flat out told us that they refuse to represent labor has been that of a sinking ship.

Bernie had more grassroots support than any candidate in my lifetime and was flat out cheated out of the nomination. Once they legally defended themselves against accusations of election fraud by saying they don’t need to be fair, I have FULLY checked out. And I tend to have a cynical laugh at anyone who hasn’t…

I continue, election cycle after election cycle trying to convince people that we are in a sham democracy and people laugh at me and ridicule me and block me and tell me how wrong I am while I watch Kamala do her best impression of Bush Sr. circa 1981 and Trump go off the Ted Nugent deep end SOLELY BECAUSE OF the utterly corrupt crop of democrats that are the standard in this country. By the way, corporate America loves to recruit minority sleeper cells to try and wokewash away their corporatism

It’s not new.
