    You can get rid of it by voting for corporate stooges who love it?

    This entire idea is based on a false premise that you somehow hold any political power AFTER voting.

      You’re an idiot if you don’t vote, you’re a robot if you do, you can’t win either way.

      By not voting, you’re giving up your rights before you’ve even lost them, all cause you’ve convinced yourself that you’re gonna lose anyway

      You do though - and you have less power again if you let fascists come in and take away even that. Your defeatism is pure stupidity.
