I have participated for over two decades in all ways possible, I can't support any part of this system with a good conscience anymore. We can do something better, the US constitution and neoliberal capitalism isn't the ultimate attainment of human progress.
That’s why the pyramid is unfinished.
Not if you refuse to participate.
Political systems have collapsed countless times in history. When I say something better I mean something outside of this corrupted, illegitimate system that rewards only the wealthy, a structure which will kill us all if we don't work against it.
Due to not enough people voting? Or due to violent revolutions? Because the first one doesn’t have a great track record, as far as I know.
