    Shut up and do what we tell you! This is what’s good for the corporate ruling class! You have the illusion of choice we give you, so go and vote for the two terrible choices we have given you and be happy.

        This isn’t about the value of your vote or whether to vote. It is about the continued poor quality of choices and the people who decide the candidates that run and are eventually voted on in the elections.

        Party leadership and manipulation of candidates have led us to where we are now along with a disfunctional congress that pushes regressive policies.

        Politicians understand and manipulate the votes in every way possible. Gerrymandering is a great example of this, no opponents can win those districts as its a mathematical impossibility.

        They have figured out they need to oen the courts and local governments that pass voting laws and control the election process.

        Those are the real issues that need to be addressed.

      I guarantee that 80%+ of the people complaining about the 2 choices have never voted in a party primary
