    I vote in every election but it sure as hell never feels like my vote does anything at all or is even recorded.

    TBH i don’t think there’s a way to vote our way out of a lot of our issues.

      If voting changed anything, they’d make it illegal.

      ~ Emma Goldman

      Incidentally, a lot of US districts have made voting increasingly difficult to the point of illegality.

      But I rarely see Votey types grapple with that fact. They either dismiss the disenfranchised as lazy/stupid or ignore this cohort entirely.
