    Put pressure on politicians to do better

    And even if they dont do better, elect them anyway. That’ll teach them.

      Don’t vote and help their much worse fascist opponents get elected instead, which will affect the general population, not the wealthy elites. That’ll teach them!

          You’re correct. But they get fucked much harder one way than the other. It’s all about harm reduction.

            Harm reduction is a myth, people have been preaching harm reduction for decades and there’s been no reduction in harm. Quite the opposite, poverty has increased. Homelessness is at a rate not seen since the Great depression, income inequality is the highest ever recorded. The most percentage of people living paycheck to paycheck is higher than any other level recorded. There has been no reduction in harm.
