She is correct. However, the problem is the system that came make votes irrelevant. Just imply folks need to vote only does so much.

yall tried that in 2016 and 2020.

Not sure who you meant by "Y'all" but Left or Progressive voters put their hopes and faith in Bernie Sanders, who ran as a Democrat. Also more black voters turned out in 2020 than any previous year since 2012.

If the orange fuhrer wasn't running I might be more inclined to hear this argument, but considering the crossroads, my soul won't let me abstain.

I will vote for Biden to ensure that Trump does not get another single day in office.

However, I do not support the Democratic Party as a whole so I will not be voting down ticket now or ever again.

Didn't vote for Hochul, didn't vote for Adams, or anyone on the City Council, because I do not support these people and my vote does not really count because of RCV in NY.

As long as they can instill fear in you to keep going along, nothing will change

That's cool, I don't want Trump in office but I do not support the politicians in NY or NYC.

I also have issues with the Democratic Party over the course of the past...15 years or so
