Voting Feels Empty Now
I wrote a similar post prior to the 2020 election describing how disappointed I have become with American politics. I just finished my ballot for this year’s election, and filling it out left me feeling more disconnected than I felt from politics in 2020.
Democrats Help Far-Right Republicans
If you follow politics at all, you are familiar with Democrats pretending they are protecting America from Republican efforts to destroy democracy.

Democrats Don’t Really Care About Accessible Transit Stations
I am not enjoying writing this post. I hate almost always having to be critical. But I have to tell the truth.

As usual, they are engaging in political theater designed to convince people to believing they are doing… Continue reading Democrats Don’t Really Care About Accessible Transit Stations
American Elections Could Truly be Meaningless
Many of us know America is not and never has been a democracy. We know the two-party system is designed to provide the elusion of choice when in reality both parties serve their corporate masters and the wealthy at the expense of everyone else. But next year the Supreme Court could rule so that state… Continue reading American Elections Could Truly be Meaningless
