The President is always conveniently powerless when he's doing terrible things. His hand is forced! What a shame. Alas. Shucks.
October 2024 rolls around: MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF YOUR LIFETIME DEFEAT THE RIGHT WING.
Anyways electoral reform ain't gonna do shit, only revolution will solve the problem, which is capitalism. You can attempt (and usually fail) to fiddle with the technocratic dials all you'd like, just like most constitutional amendments did, just like little state level voting reforms did, and guess what: the country will still be dictated by crises of capitalism and its imposed necessities to produce and reproduce the system. Very few of the problems are new. At their core is the dictatorship we put up with for over 1/3 of our days and that creates harsh guard rails on what is possible.
Biden is a particularly cruel captain of the team, but you're not gonna fix the ship. It needs to be destroyed and utterly changed.
Ok, but have you considered revolution is really hard to do?? I will have to miss brunch
