The nature of parliamentary politics sure, but that’s just oligarchy with a thin veneer of democracy. No politician is ever responsible, stronger still, the more they push austerity, the more they are rewarded with top-level positions in international institutions. That is what drives politicians, not the betterment of their people. So I can’t undo myself of the impression that participating in this sham is reinforcing it, legitimizing it.
That’s the most important question of our time. We have only a few decades to not only come up with that answer, but also with its rigorous implementation.
There seem to be many theories and strategies, either working within and outside the current system, but few seem ideal. Further worsened by the fact that the more ideal a solution seems, the more change it requires of regular folks, thus the more resistance it will face.
But then again, I’m sure once more people see the necessity of it, more discussions will happen, hopefully resulting in better contemporary strategies.
An Inconvenient Truth came out almost 20 years ago. The “lesser evils” have had what, 3 terms, in that period? So projecting into the future, the next 3 DNC administrations will have a lot of work to do to solve this completely.
So yea, go ahead and keep that hope alive, but then also permit me to remain skeptical.
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

What is the alternative though?

We either have it NOW or we vote for the lesser evil. There is no waiting, it only causes fascism to rise

people vothing third party despite being warned a bilion times that because of them (and you) trump will get elected. ._.
your skepticism has directly caused the deportation of milions, including the woman referenced by this post.
If that’s what you wanted all along, then yes, i do permit you to help trump, separate families, kill off black people and restore the aryan race.
