The system is corrupt and voting people in doesn’t fix it but y’all literally reblog shit every day that could be fixed with local policy that is already fixed in other states and counties. You can literally vote and also do grassroots work and community work and revolutionary work ALSO. Like they don’t cancel each other out you are not being w revolutionary by not participating and hurting disabled and elderly people in your community and students etc. by not voting locally like shut the fuck up

Also voting a LOT will fix things. If everybody was voting in every election they could, from school board to president, real change can happen. People can’t just vote for president and maybe senate and then claim that voting is pointless. 

And I would argue that voting locally is even more important overall! So few people vote in their local elections that your actions there can make an utterly huge difference.

Your local government controls the water you drink; I’d say that’s fairly important
