‘We have to wait for elections to attempt to fix anything’ is just something we’ve been brainwashed to believe.
Enough people deciding they want change immediately makes it happen. Especially when those at the reigns fear immediate backlash.
Elections are theater as long as corporate campaign funding exists.
Elections were the deal. We'd vote for representatives and abide by their decisions rather than, y'know, killing people in the streets to change society.
When elections can't change society, though. When the deal is broken, it's back to the old ways.
Yep. The social contract has been destroyed. Time to stop holding up our end of it.
