Except I keep voting and they still don’t care what I think because I’m on the left.

The only reason I’m a registered Democrat is so I can vote in the primaries in my state. And I do so as often as possible.

Good! You're pulling things to the left!

So politics means “when you do things right it will feel like you’ve done nothing at all?”

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, it just means there's more people pulling things to the right. Next you gotta convince people to pull with you.

The absolute top tier play for Leftists now is to show up in DROVES this election, hand Kamala a landslide. And then put up a ton of candidates in the next primary. Show the DNC that you are a force which can win elections, and then put the fear of being primaried in them. That's dragging things to the left.

Considering every election makes me feel more like an outsider in my own country I think it will be less frustrating just to feel like I lose every election.

Unless you have some tips on breaking Americans of their patriotism.

No clue, I'm a giant patriot.
