@molly0xfff Our top priority in America should be election reform.
@DekOfTheYautja @molly0xfff
Our top priority in America should be ending capitalism and getting rid of the oligarchs.
@Quasit that's a downstream problem.

@DekOfTheYautja
Reformed elections aren't going to do anything to get us there.

The system is not reformable. Not on anything but an absolutely cosmetic level. Getting rid of the oligarchs and capitalism will take a complete revolution. And that means a general strike.

@Quasit @DekOfTheYautja righto, you continue hoping for revolution mate, we adults will fix it up while you’re wanking
@jacques @DekOfTheYautja
Because voting harder for liberal Democrats has been SO effective for the last 45 years. So who's living in a dream world?
