Collective voting efforts will slow the fascist push some, enough that sabotage, monkey-wrenching and the destabilization of the GOP might allow some efforts to re-empower the public to happen... or at least drive the MAGAs to start the civil war prematurely, putting them again on the side against the state.

Voting is important, but it's not the force for change we were promised it was.

For that we will have to expose the rich enough that everyone knows how tasty they are.

Oh and remember what the French did whenever the monarchists started rolling back civil rights.

Voting is a great force for change...

When you're not split 50/50 with fascists. And other people that hate democracy.
