Reducing everything down to raw exercises of power is a very strong 'we had to burn down the village to save it' energy. At this point, what is left to save if you're willing to burn away everything you're trying to preserve just for a win?

Who said that? Our congressional reps began 2.0 talking about working across the aisle. Very little pushback to his xo’s because ’he won a fair election’. Media created normalcy. Truth telling over acceptance of lies and abuse is hardly burning it all down
Alternate reality check. Not a single Dem voter told our reps to work w/ Trump. He couldn’t even pull off a majority win. The first rule in working with abusers (Trump, his cult, Project 2025, etc) is to get the abused to safety (the US) and then deal with the abuser. That’s where we are right now.

Voters told them that they didn't vote for Palestine, student loans, or climate.
They voted for immigration and cheaper things.
This is the danger of "staying home because my vote wasn't earned" - you cease to exist.
Non voters aren't real.
The only voters are the ones who showed up.
If you stayed home, from a political standpoint - you're dead.
And so is your issue.
No one cares what an opinion poll says mattered.
They only focus on what brings voters to mark a ballot.
