If only the corporate Dems were actually on the good side... Sigh.
At least they aren't openly nazis. When presented with two evils, pick the lesser. If you don't pick either, bigger evil benefits for you not voting rather than voting against it.
I know, it feels pointless when the opposition is only marginally ~~better~~ less evil. But I am reminded this one motivational speaker who told me you have to make it difficult as possible for them:
If enough people always vote for lesser evil, and demand justice and accountability, it accumulates. Sure, a political party may spend a minimal effort to brush the one protestor off, but many will be more difficult to ignore. Eventually they have commit political capital and resources to answer the dissatisfaction, even if it's to defend themselves. And those are resources they have to divert from the usual fuckupperies. At some point it will be easier to budge to the demand of a large demographic.
If a politician can ignore a demographic for free, they will. An act of small resistance is still resistance.
No corporation is ever on your side. There’s a reason why authors for over a century have been writing dystopian books about them going back to the gilded age.
