We don’t have a democracy. The fact that nearly all of the primaries were cancelled this year and the dnc just decided to pick a winner is evidence that we don’t. we have a captilaist oligarchy in which no one reaches the high office unless the rich think it’s ok.

All this tells me is that you don’t understand what I said. You’re saying that because the systems in place can be used to limit the choices we have in frustrating ways, we don’t have choices.
But we still do have choices. It’s very rare that they’re the best ones, but they’re still choices. A choice between a genocide-supporting fascist and a genocide-supporting non-fascist is still a choice between a fascist and a non-fascist. That choice sucks, but it’s a choice worth making.
Cool back peddle bro, I’m sure “voting” third party is exactly what you meant. Too bad voting nonviable candidates is completely pointless at this time and would only serve to give the rightwing more electoral power.

If those are the choices the system gives us then it’s probably a good idea to rebel against said system.
Really? Given a choice between fascist or non fascist you think a real answer is “rebel!”
Well alright then, fuckin do it mate. Don’t expect anyone else to lead the charge you want.
This is why nobody takes you seriously.
edit: a word
You think by rebel I mean wage war. There’s many more ways to rebel, the one I’m encouraging is voting for a third party candidate.
