I dont think voting is going to fix everything. We need action outside of that. But voting still does something. And some democrats are pushing for ranked choice voting which is an avenue for more socialist in power through voting.
So yeah, I guess I disagree with the "lets talk about that later" but she was saying that during the voting phase. Its not like a revolution is going to manifest during that small time.
I feel that voting in national elections accomplishes next to nothing, so tabling discussions about important issues so that we can all
harder is a net negative.
Yeah I dont understand the concept of tabling discussions so that we can vote. Just vote. And then discuss. Its not like voting takes that much effort.
(Admittedly there are some areas where voting is really difficult but I can fill out a ballot and send it in the mail in <15min)
