Progressive Politics

If you're expecting anyone to fix a system for you while you sit on your ass, you're in for a world of disappointment.

This isn't a fix, it's one step. You need to do a hell of a lot more than show up once or twice a year to get things fixed. And it takes more than just you. That's what the whole post is about. People don't show up because they feel it's impossible to change.

In no small part because of doom-sayers like yourself who constantly keep saying that "if you do it that way you're bound to fail, so don't even try".

Democrats are a stop-gap. I'm not saying they're not. But if you remove that stop gap the entire system floods. If you have a better way to staunch the flow, I'd love to hear it. But all I hear from your type is "But I put in the bare minimum possible effort and it didn't change things, so I'm going to stop trying at all".
