And you are actively participating in your own oppression, knowingly voting for a candidate when you’ve seen for four straight decades that either ruling party is going to make your life demonstrably harder.
Do you like paying double for your groceries?
Do you like that your rent is skyrocketing?
Meanwhile they make hundreds of billions appear out of thin air for other countries’ wars.
But the choices we have in a general election are:
Vote for the candidate you hate least
Not vote at all and accept whatever the worst candidates are doing to you
Vote for a fairytale candidate (this and option 2 have identical results)
Violent uprising
The Trump cult is hard at work on options 1 and 4 while deploying millions of bots and thousands of bad actors to encourage everyone else to go with options 2 and 3.

Vote Green instead.

I’m expecting them to not effectively outlaw being anything other than a wealthy CIS white Christian male.
