Pretty good article. I think you would get along really well with someone here (for a few minutes anyway)

I know our vote is meaningless. I know everything is already decided by the global elite, but I can at least make a symbolic gesture of where I stand. I’m not happy that the government systematically traffics, rapes, tortures, and murders children— but what am I going to do about it? I’ve got bills to pay. Besides, they are watching everything I say and do. Even if we tried to do something about it, they’d find out and shut it down.

Even from the premise that voting has zero real political power, it still isn't meaningless because it superficially aligns large coalitions of people. It would be difficult to find an uprising or revolution in the postindustrial era that didn't start with some kind of political party or movement.

I know. It’s depressing. You wake up to the news that the highest level of government is run by a satanic pedophile cult. To make it even worse, that is just the information that they are okay with releasing to the public.

The problem is, "you" isn't the average person. What is happening right now is that a majority of the country isn't ready to cosign this. The people on the edge of political discourse are jumping forward to "all these people are eating children" but the mainstream hasn't caught up yet.

Imo the decisive factor in what will happen next is if partial disclosure makes the fire hotter, or quenches it.
