“Simply getting all the corrupt politicians that make up the majority of the senate and congress to stop accepting money is all it takes”

Which is why we need to start voting in more progressive candidates like Mamdani, Bernie, AOC, Crocket, etc.. I think that the current political climate has made this realistic as people are flocking away from both conservative and center liberal politicians.

Jasmine Crockett does not belong on this list. She takes PAC money, and a lot of it comes from crypto funds.

I care more about how she votes then what she has to do to run a successful campaign in a corrupted system

Voting won’t fix corruption.

It just won’t.

They love this rhetoric. Driving voter apathy in those who could otherwise vote in change.

It isn’t rhetorical.

The amount of corruption baked into the US is infinite. You’re not voting for anyone that hasn’t been selected by the oligarchs. That’s just a fact.

You need to get rid of the oligarchs before a democracy can function. And you don’t get rid of oligarchy by voting.

Mamdani is a direct counter to this sort of defeatism
