Vote for the change you want to see.

The Republican party got remade because trumpists showed up and outvoted the party elites. No reason it can't happen for the Left except for laziness and apathy.

If all the progressives furious about the state of affairs now had shown up for Sanders in 2016, I doubt we'd be in this hellish timeline. Sadly, he needed the young progressive vote to show up.

America would be a better place if people realised politics happens 24/7 and not once every 4 years.

Because in people's mind, politic is purely about backstabbing and rich people party, and not about governing and policy making.

When people say that, they usually don't mean voting in primaries or wasting your precious life in a party.
