Time for voting is over. You can’t vote our way out of this. Unfortunately it is to late and definitely can’t fix it under a two party system, especially when both parties are captured and serve the rich.
I also feel it is too late to come together and show the government, who is really in charge, because 46% of our country wants and likes the boot on their neck.
While both Amerucan political parties are deeply flawed and do not represent the needs of regular people, there are important differences between them. It is disingenuous to equate them.
Nah we definitely can vote our way out of it. It’s just going to take way longer and we’d need to convince people who the real enemy is. But we’d need to do that with a violent revolution too. When a lot of people, who own a lot of guns are drinking the capitalist Kool aid, a revolution just ends up being poor people fighting other poor people. Then the elites win in the end anyways.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m on board with the need to drastically change and if the guillotine is the way then cool but it’s just not at the moment. Voting is the least effective form of civic engagement so it would take the longest and we’re running out of time. If we can get leftists to run and win in lots of local government races then there is absolutely a path to change things from the ground up. Politicians, wealthy elite and corporations really really want you to think that you have no options. The options just involve hard work so a lot of people think that murdering the wealthy is the easy way out. I agree that it’s a way but I’m skeptical that it’s as easy or cut and dry as many leftists want us to think it is.
Mass violence is the ugliest and least reliable way of effecting change. But damn if a little Reign of Terror, as a treat, doesn’t sound nice sometimes when I read the news.

Sounds like a personal problem. Try using a little more imagination.
