It’s like everyone collectively realized this year that American elections are exercises in picking the bourgeois faction most closely aligns with your policy goals, bearing in mind that they have way more in common with each other than they do with you, retroactively justified it to themselves, and now refuse to explain or elaborate on that justification.
Okej it’s like this: 99% of the policy positions are identical to Hitler. That’s just how it is, don’t worry about it. It will make sens at the end.
If you vote Republican that last percentage also goes to Hitlerite policy positions. It’s sort of a “auto policy mode” if you will.
However, if you vote for democrats you get to (sort of) decide what happens to the last 1%. With one caveat: that during special election cycles, when it’s really important that they win the elections, that remaining 1% is directly controlled by the party to make emergency policies to gain votes.
Don’t worry tho, you will get it back the next election cycle.
So voting does or does not matter then I’m awfully confused

Saying the quiet part out loud but not internalizing any of the implications
It’s funny what people say when they think it represents the consensus.
Of course it matters!
