    Right, so you removed the reat of the sentence in that quote which agreed with that.

    Specifically what I’m saying is that if people smarten up the system will change. The US is super close to being a dictatorship but the world saw Mamdani get elected all the same. There was a lot of power trying to get him to lose and he still won because he got the votes.

    If people can vote and don’t because “it doesn’t matter” then they are a huge part of the problem and should be ashamed of themselves. Even if they lose for a few cycles, that support is crucially important to see on paper.
