    I’ll be at the polls voting to do my part to protect what I can.

    Sure, do that. Then what? When the result sucks are you gonna go back to being a defeatist little bitch afterwards and wait another two years for the next election?

      Simple. I’ll keep voting for progressive candidates that actually stand a chance of winning (Democrats) until the day I die and hope that enough other Americans educate themselves enough to do the same.

      And I assume I’ll also have to keep listenening to people like you implying that the system can’t be fixed but who lack the balls to start the revolution they keep implying is needed while they keep advocating for it from the comfort of their Doritos dust covered couches.

        So go home and be a defeatist little bitch? Or, if we’re gonna do the ad hominens thing, “advocating for [Americans educating themselves] from the comfort of [your] Doritos dust covered couches”?

        implying that the system can’t be fixed

        Can’t fix a problem you don’t understand. I’m trying to spoon-feed you some understanding and that seems to cause you some serious cognitive dissonance. Why?
