apologies if this isn't the place for this, but after bernie lost his nomination, I had become disenfranchised and sat out 2 elections. Now I'm seeing all the work that went into making me feel disenfranchised as mechanisms to control my vote; I don't understand it, but if so much work is going into controlling peoples ability to vote... it must matter more than I can comprehend.

    doesn't what is happening now mean that "help isn't coming?" All three branches of government taken over by republicans without resistance from the democratic party. As awful as I thought the two-party system is, the truth was even worse. We're North Korea, we're just putting on a show for the unthinking masses. We're only going to get what billionaires give us.
