How exactly is voting a fantasy? All elections are rigged?
In the sense that it's a two party system, yes. The ruling class only gives us the illusion of choice.
The choices are rigged. You can't vote for change if change isn't on the ballot... The best sounding politician in living memory was voted in. and we got...(Checks notes) increased drone bombing and sold out to the insurance companies.
Regarding insurance companies, you're blaming Obama which is absolutely bullshit. Republicans are the reason for all those shortcomings
They are also to blame, but you see how thoroughly you are convinced that it is "the other guy"? That is the beauty of a rigged two party system. Your republican neighbor is all "Damn Obamacare" when the bill was a Republican design "pushed through congress" by a Democrat. Like a ballet.
I am convinced by the many sources of information I consumed. I watched this happen in real time. Democrats being shitty does not make them equivalent to Republicans. Republicans benefit from that lie.
