The real reason is that the primaries generally give people the ability to choose the leaders of each party, and people don’t usually vote in primaries

Are you asking in a leftist or a centrist way? If it’s in a centrist way you’re just an embarrassed Republican

Your singular vote rarely has an effect on the outcome. If everybody thought like that though nobody would ever vote. Terrible mentality

Fair enough. Did you vote in primaries? There’s quite a few states that let you vote at 17 for primaries if you will be 18 by the general election

that’s quite ironic given that people will die specifically because of our unwillingness to deconstruct the two party system. people already are dying because if it. you kinda lost the ability to utilize that argument given that people are unwilling to consider genocide a fundamental line that should never be crossed. (and most direct? as individuals, maybe, but I can think of quite a few more direct ways to garner more power than meaningless votes every few years)

an example being general strikes, or targeted strikes; but most of our fellow Americans are more obsessed with their individual comfort than achieving any semblance of justice.
