how has it been working out for you?
Well since people keep not showing up, focusing on a single election, and voting (or not) based on their "principles" (re: ego), it's not.
Considering alternatives require all those things (and usually more), I don't see anything else working any better though.
if you blame the victims for the rise of fascism, you will never solve that conundrum.
If the victims (ourselves included, no matter your nationality) never do anything to fix their own situation, no one else is going to do it for them. There is no white knight coming for you, sitting on your ass and waiting for someone else to fix everything for you is how fascism takes hold.
practice what you preach. do something, then.
fascism already took hold in your country.
