You’ll never win - unless things are bad enough. I was super-political for years. And after years of banging my head against the wall I realized most people just don’t give a shit. They’re too wrapped up in the day to day drudgery of life. As long as they have a roof over there head and 3 squares a day that’s enough for most of them. They can’t, and won’t commit, any time and energy to ensuring democracy works for their benefit because that takes effort. Effort they could otherwise spend sitting on their fat asses watching garbage on network TV. It’s only when things get really bad do we see the bloody revolutions. Then things are great…for a while, and people fall back into those same old patterns. Hence the reason history is cyclical. Wash… Rinse. Repeat. Always repeat.
