So...you are tacitly admitting that the "lesser of two evils" trick will always work on you?

explain how your political process can flourish

I don't recall proposing a political process. I'll engage with the strawman anyway. If I was president of this wretched hellscape, The bare minimum policies to start would be:

Electoral reform, labor reform, UBI, criminal justice reform, tax reform (wealth tax, inheritance tax, national property tax, tax on financial transactions), corporate death penalty, presumptive liability for corporate executives, bring the military and police to heel.

something wildly unlikely

Uhh, sure, it is going to be very difficult to change the power structures in the United States that are entrenched into every facet of life and constantly propagandized through the media. I guess we should just give up and spend all our time fellating the ruling class.
