It seemed like you were suggesting in your original comment that voting was futile and that we needed a revolution instead.

Voting is futile when it comes to enacting positive change, and we do need a revolution to actually enact change, but that doesn't mean we can will a revolution into existence out of thin-air. Revolution is inevitable in Capitalist systems as Capitalism declines out of its necessary contradictions.

It would be great if you would read some of what I have linked.

So do you think people should vote or not?
