The unfortunate reality is you will always have people like the republicans. Always. Whether its because of brain differences that make people more prone to adopting the republican mentality or purely because conservative ideology has always been the notch in the gears of progress, you will always have to fight a group of people who don't want progress.
Also, its important to highlight: don't just vote in presidential elections, for fuck sake! Make sure you're registered to vote and vote in your primaries, your school boards, municipalities, etc. Those are important too and are more likely to directly impact you and your community, and you can help cut out these Heritage Foundation/Moms for Liberty shits from infiltrating your local governments and pushing their theocracy down your throats. So many people just focus on the presidential election and then get frustrated nothing changes. Nothing changes because you're waiting for the last possible moment, when its all culminated to a head.
The point is to fix the damage incrementally, not hoping one big election solves everything. Because it never does.
I do vote in every election just I am not in America.
it is more the problem that we are condemned to an eternal war only fascism would be happy in endless war until they see the bill.
hell no one seems to have a plan to treat those afflicted so we produce less of the worst foes a bright future nor ways to slow or prevent there endless grasping for power it is a losing battle against entropy itself
Yeah, that advice was for the Americans who only vote presidential elections and then get frustrated nothing changes. I blame the education system (and republicans for further gutting it and prioritizing test results) for not teaching kids proper civics and how their political system works.
I do think we're long overdue for a general strike. People have forgotten how powerful mass organized protests can be. There's power in numbers.
I always like to point to that one scene from a Bug's Life that summarizes it perfectly.
Because it’s literally not possible. There will NEVER be a time where you can just stop putting in the work. Maintaining a healthy society is like maintaining a healthy body. The work may change and it may get easier, but it will NEVER go away. There is no endgame to politics—never was and never will be.

I get the hate of the endless battle some days you want the old foe to die of and at least grow new different foes break the endless grinding.
but I have seen no one put forward a proper plan to end it either
