Corruption is a fundamental problem of any system of governance, and it reaches a point where the only route to defeat it is to kill the fucking cheats who set it up.
Voting is nit going to fix a system that has intentionally broken voting to invalidate you. Only revolution can do that.
Okay, so we're in the same place. Replacing the current system with something better may get corrupted, but so may status quo. So has status quo.
We don't want revolution because we think everything would perfect and incorruptible in that future, but because a fresh start affords us aon opportunity to reflect upon our foundational mistakes and do build something great from the ground up.
And this is how it works with any project. Sometimes the movie isnt coming together and fixing costs more than starting over. Sometimes your drawing has fundamental issues that can't be fixed by small tweaks, and entire sections or pieces need to be cleared or restarted afresh.
Trying to fix this system certainly is a thing you can try, and many people here have. I spent 35-odd years of my life as a diehard Democrat. I caucused locally and helped my mayor get elected. I didn't come to my position today from a lack of consideration. I think we'd all prefer this shit to be fixed as easily as possible, and no good marxist is under the impression that revolutions are simple, painless things to attempt.
Being liberal is about keeping an open mind, yeah? Like openmindedness is a central principle to modern liberal political philosophy. Keep that energy. Let your mind be open to what the left suggests. I'm not under the impression I can talk you into leftism, but it doesnt hurt you to consider what the left has to offer to your personal philosophy

Why bother trying to do anything ever if everything we do is doomed?
