    Mostly because the people with the “right idea” about moving the building have given up and just don’t participate anymore.

    And, oddly enough, you can do multiple things! Voting is one aspect of change, not the only one. It’s a relatively simple thing you do maybe every six months at most.

    But sure, no point in doing it, right? Cause why would we bother doing something unless we can see our names in big flashing lights saying “You did the thing, congrats!”

      That’s my secret: I’ve given up and still vote. Haven’t stopped. Every time it’s beating my head against a wall. I hate it. Nothing makes me feel less American than an election.

      Maybe we should stop trying to move a building by beating our heads against it?
