    Agreed, not in the long run. Voting is like stop the bleed on a traumatic injury. It’ll keep you alive in the short term so you can get more comprehensive care.

        When the organizing and fighting that that you do beyond voting finally pays off. Like back to the analogy, if a wound is all dressed and banaged and healing, you no longer have to worry about stop the bleed.

        Realisticay though, for the rest of your life. Because these are very large social moves that typically happen over generations. Unless you’re the next Che Guavara or something. In which case hell yeah go you.
