You're complaining without presenting any alternatives, which is categorically unhelpful.

You're advocating for voter apathy which is supremely regressive.

If voting didn't matter, there wouldn't be such a concerted effort to disenfranchise voters, via the electoral college and otherwise.

You're not convincing me or anyone else here that you've got a sober view on this; it seems like you're hoping that accelerationism towards collapse will net a positive result. Complain all you want about voting and how imperfect it is, your vision of apathy and hopelessness is actively hateful towards anyone who wants a better world.
