    The way to actually make progress in this regard is to start at low level. City, county, and eventually state positions have to be the focus if we want to get a broader range of parties into the conversation.

      Better yet join political organizations like unions, get involved. Voting does barely anything.

      Good luck. You need other people to want to do that as well and when democrats and republicans are throwing “fuck you” money at anyone that isn’t beholden to their shared investors you are gonna get nothing done.

      We do, we really do, need something to change and we need it to flow through multiple levels from low to to high government positions.
      But I just don’t see it happening until the next large scale cultural upheaval makes space for it and that seems like it’s gonna be a nightmare or lots of groups that have waited for that moment.
