Once we get representational voting instead of first past the post. As long as we have first past the post, we vote for the not fascist, then we work at a local level.

So never, got it. Glad we can reconfirm that liberals will never actually push for change, just virtue signal and go to brunch until it’s time to vote again.

Or, vote locally, get involved with local politics and push for change. Get representative voting locally, and push it up from grass roots. But you’d rather Trump win.

Local elections matter far more than federal elections, sure. “Push for change” is just vibes, do you mean asking reps politely? Historically that doesn’t really work at enacting major change.

Get representative voting locally, and push it up from grass roots.

Why do you think this would work? When has reformism worked?

But you’d rather Trump win.

Nope. Saying the Dems are merely the more moderate face of a genocidal empire doesn’t mean I want the GOP. Both parties form the evil empire.

They have that voting system in both Japan and Australia, doesn’t make a bit of difference, still capitalist dictatorships. Australia is also still carrying out their eviction of its indigenous peoples under that system, just like the US.

Then what do you suggest? What government or form of representation has had no atrocities?

Your question makes as much sense as asking what font has never had hate speech written in it.
