We still need to vote but we also need to pursue other means.
You’re not saying “both sides are bad” but this post is still partly about you. If voting didn’t work then republicans wouldn’t be putting this much effort into suppressing it.

Voting has never worked. Women’s Suffrage was won without the vote. Civil Rights was won with black voter turnout between 25% and 7% depending on the state. Republicans are repressing the vote so they can make more money and maintain their status, but if they lose their seats the Democrats have historically shown that they share in the bi-partisan consensus of a white supremacist fascist country. Civil rights concessions were made by R and D politicians alike. And R and D politicians co-architected the war on the drugs and racialized mass incarceration program
