    Yes, so you vote this year, get others to vote, and then spend the next 4 years working to overturn the electoral college and get ranked choice voting implemented. If you truly care, that’s where you’ll direct that passion.

    Stay focused.

      If you truly care, that’s where you’ll direct that passion.

      Here’s a question: are you doing all of that yourself?

      It just sounds to me like you’re attempting to say that people shouldn’t care or shouldn’t be frustrated if they’re not willing to spend every waking minute of their lives working towards change. And yes, while change does take time and effort, asking average citizens to go above and beyond doing their civic duty of voting is a bit much.

      This genuinely sounds like usual Republican rhetoric of “if you cared so much it wouldn’t be this way.”
