No, they definitely want us to think that it matters despite all evidence to the contrary[1][2][3][4], because they don’t want us rolling out the guillotines.
No, they absolutely want you to think voting is the only way to achieve change, despite organizing being a far more consistent and effective lever to pull than voting. They want you constrained within the boundaries of electoralism because they set up the system so the house always wins, regardless of party.
“Demanding that they do better” isn’t what I’m talking about. The system is designed precisely to not damage the profits of Capital. Asking the Dems as nicely as possible will not make things better. This strategy does not work. In order for government to listen to the working class, it needs to be owned by the working class, not Capitalists. Everything else would be table scraps.
Further, the Dems can’t prevent the country from driving off a cliff, the US Empire has been in decline as more countries have gone against its plunder. There’s less plunder now, so the working class feels the squeeze the most. We need to organize and sieze control.
That’s what they want you to think.

When will it start to effect change?

You can do both, you know? Vote for the party that doesn’t want to drive the country off the next cliff, and demand that they do better.
