Thankfully you left me this message so I can block you and never hear from you ever again.

Leftists do have solutions, though. Usually Leftists are revolutionary, the idea that they don't have a solution just because they don't support voting as a legitimate tactic is flawed.

You're absolutely right, it is clear that telling you to shut the fuck up has had no positive effect

🙄

There are no leftists in America because of the Nazi consolidation of power in the red scare and this is what you get.

What a disingenuous question. Do the leftists have the resources, reach, recognition, institutional support and seer amount of fucking money that liberals do?

Why is it a problem for "leftists" to solve?

In your country your political parties operate as one and the politics are managed by the oligarchy. Everything is occurring exactly as your business dictatorship wants.

Most of the country wants this. For every person who tries to overthrow the government, there are more people who will fight to keep it as it is.

They're gladly letting it all burn because they lazily expect it to mean easy wins in 2026. Then they'll manage to barely take the House and maaaaybe Senate, and literally do nothing with it.

Fuck em. Saves me the grief of having to convince others they are a sunk cost and investing into them is like robbing ourselves because we never get anything of value back. Or if we do it's canceled out by all the other shit we conceded to corporate america.

Think of Martin, that dude didn't get shit from the dems until he was orginized and marching. The dems weren't on a path to provide rights. He did all the heavy lifting and they slithered into his camp and got him killed.

The US is not a democracy, it's a capitalist dictatorship.

Some Background: History conditions much of our thinking about our political systems and most Western democracies resemble Rome’s in 60 BC when, as Robin Daverman humorously says, three aristocrats–politician Julius Caesar, military hero Pompey and billionaire Crassus–formed a backroom alliance that dominated the elected senate. The oligarchs ensured that proletarii votes changed nothing and that the masses remained invisible unless they rioted or died in one of the elites’ endless civil wars. Two thousand years later, in Britain’s general election of 1784, the son of the First Earl of Chatham and Hester Grenville, sister of the previous Prime Minister George Grenville, and the son of the First Baron Holland and Lady Caroline Lennox, daughter of Second Duke of Richmond, offered voters offered a choice of dukes. Today, in many European countries (even egalitarian Sweden) ‘democracy’ is a mere veneer over powerful feudal aristocracies that still control their economies. American voters recently watched a former president’s wife competing with a former president’s brother being defeated by a billionaire who installed his daughter and son-in-law in important government positions and ensured that, as John Dewey said, “U.S. politics will remain the shadow cast on society by big business as long as power resides in business for private profit through private control of banking, land and industry, reinforced by command of the press and other means of propaganda”. Most Western politicians are related by marriage or wealth and have, like all hereditary classes, lost sympathy with the broad mass of their fellow citizens to the extent that, as American political scientists Martin Gilens and Benjamin Page found, ‘the preferences of the average American appear to have a near-zero, statistically non-significant impact upon public policy’

Yeah, there's not exactly a lot of options for those of us with front row seats to the US being dismantled.

This idealism around a violent revolution to resolve our problems is asinine. Protests are nice, but even they won't solve the key issue: we have a king that ignores laws right now, and we're being ruled by a kletocratic corporatocracy.
