Joining/starting unions and mass strikes would be much faster if you are able. Sure, vote too, but the premise of this post specifically says they don’t care what you think. Make them care.
Sarah Palin was supposed to bring in the party’s fringes for McCain in his 2008 bid. She was considered a nutter then.
One Obama later, and suddenly McCain was either the scum of the earth or the best the GOP has to offer, depending on who you ask, and those groups of people flipped in that time. Meanwhile Palin became a mascot.
Palin wasn’t even invited to his funeral. Didn’t speak to him one time in the year he was sick.
If history tells us anything, fascists love advertising that they’re actually socialists and that you should definitely vote for them. And North Carolina got a little taste of what that might feel like last year.
Yes, but not only is it better than what we current have, but it goes against the whole “That’s a problem no matter how government officials are elected, and therefore irrelevant.” claim you made earlier.
Keep voting blue and hope things change.

Take over the democratic party with actual leftists. If the fascists can do it with the GOP, we can do it with leftists/the DNC.
Just vote for the right people for a decade and it can happen
The GOP fell to the MAGA crowd a lot quicker than a decade.
Ehh…not that much.

They’ve been falling for loonies for decades, sure, but that is tangential.

That’s a problem no matter how government officials are elected, and therefore irrelevant.
Sortition
In a country where 1/3rd of the country is either fascist or a fascist sympathizer? No thanks.
As opposed to the 50%+ we have in office now?
At no point have I indicated that was acceptable either.
