If you’re not a billionaire, or not even a millionaire, and then allow a government that is still rooted in institutional power and elections to be dismantled by anti-democratic forces, by electing exactly those forces

…then you’re acting against your own interests, you are guaranteeing that things will turn out worse for you.

100%, no exceptions handed out.

Yes, institutions still often struggle to represent you, the dude, the gal, the trans with little in the pocket. It’s a constant fight.

But when a fascist or whatever other personality cult takes over, the struggle is over. You lost the fight. You’re now a drone to do the bidding of those in power. Your life standards will worsen, your nation’s performance will worsen, which is all too logical, since the nation now only exists to satisfy the needs of a few power hungry sociopaths.

So don’t be a fool. If you’re not bloody rich you must elect democratic as long as you can, because it’s the only fighting chance you’ve got. Sure you think that democracy sucks, and we’re having a rough patch baby, I’m not gonna deny this, but what you’re electing there ain’t the solution, it is like killing yourself when you have the flu to make it go away.

Go vote parties that support orderly transfer of power, strengthening institutions and regular elections.

Hinter der Trommel her

Trotten die Kälber

Das Fell für die Trommel

Liefern sie selber.

Behind the drum

The calves trot along

The drumheads

They supply it themselves.

Bertold Brecht, der Kälbermarsch
