Which specific issue is systemic?

I'm confused because you keep on jumping around to different points, you argue against positions that I don't have, and you don't directly answer any of my follow-up questions.

If I wasn't sure that you honestly believe what you are saying, I would accuse you of intentionally muddying the water. This looks a lot like psyop stuff.

The issue the meme is decrying: that the political landscape and discourse is shifting to the right.

How often do I need to repeat that I don't know how to explain it to you?

I agree with that. I never disagreed with the meme.

It has never been my position that voting for the lesser evil will solve all of our problems or bring about a progressive government.

I have only ever argued that voting for the lesser evil will give the people who are trying to organize (us) a better environment for doing so. Voting for the lesser evil helps with the organization. It's weird to me that people are against voting for the lesser evil. I don't get it, I hope someone can explain it to me.

Can you please stop assuming what positions I have?
