    It's really funny because nearly everyone hates 'the government', but when you suggest that maybe the system itself is also to blame, you're suddenly a 'foreign agitator'

          Never said it did. They're two unrelated things. Which is why i don't understand why voting for the "lesser of two evils" means i support them, or capitalism in any way.

          This whole argument feels like the old "if you're a communist, why do you have a phone?" thing all over again.

              Unless you're planning on starting a revolution tomorrow, i'm still subject to whatever the policies the people in power install, so i'd rather pick the one that harms me and the people i care about the least.

              Though i'm not sure why i bother arguing. You people just want to feel superior for doing nothing.

                There are people on this site that did more praxis in the past year alone than every vote you could cast in your entire lifetime. Please do not presume to think we "do nothing" just because the only political action you can imagine is voting once every two years.

                And you have the audacity to accuse us of "wanting to feel superior" just because you are defensive of your willful ignorance.

                No investigation no right to speak.
