Billionaires own the elected government (via the campaign finance system) Billionaires own the supreme court (via legalized bribery) Billionaires own the media companies covering these things (via literally, legally owning them) Someone please explain what the fuck voting is supposed to do again?

And even if you put alllll that aside, there's still the gerrymandering, the voter suppression/intimidation, the way the electoral collage works... The fact that the dems get so many votes every election, usually winning the popular vote, despite all this! How much more do they need?

the ballot box is not where the power lies. it is orthogonal to the levers of power. it is irrelevant to the truly powerful. it should not be this way but this is where we are
