You won't get any Progress from the current status quo. Ever. Look back & measure it:
#Inequality? Worse than in the 1950s!
Adjusted middle-class #incomes? Flatlining for 20 years+!
Personal #Healthcare costs? Bankrupting individuals & families more than ever.
Political #Corruption? Endemic. They're ALL at it! (To the point now that they can't get to Congress without it!)
#CitizensUnited? Pure #Plutocracy.
#BigOil, #MilitaryIndustrial, #BigFinance, #MSM Oligarchy, etc. etc. etc.
Etc.

You want civil disobedience to fix stuff but you balk at an actual "protest vote" with an actual, coordinated program for change & repair of the system at its root? 🤷
(We're on the same side & I'm all for large-scale civil disobedience in the meantime, but, without a comprehensive corpus of policies behind it, incumbent govts will only ever use piecemeal public protest as a scapegoat for *more* of the same.☝️ )
