The Democrats are not "slow progress," nor are Republicans "no progress." Both are decay, decline, dying Capitalism in a crumbling Empire. There is no progress to be had with either of them. Voting isn't a tiny part of making the world a better place, it's less than the bare minimum required to enact positive change.

If you understand that Capitalism must decay, and that the US is the world's worst Empire, then you understand that the only way to progress is revolution. Pretending that Leftists "prefer Trump" just showcases that you don't understand the core problem. That your profile banner is an Anarchist flag yet you argue against revolution means leftism is cosplay for you.

how has slow progress worked for you in the last hundred years

Progress has not only slowed down but gotten worse. Workers today are working longer hours for less pay then in a very long time all while their paycheck goes less then it has, meanwhile Kamala promised to make things even worse.

You're talking about Kamala "means testing" Harris, who paraded around with Liz Cheney, and comparing it to Trump who ran a far-right populist campaign running on ideas like "no tax on tips." Harris failed to run on popular programs like Medicare for All, and Trump did his usual awful schtick while exploiting the fact that Harris had no solid policy.

Neither party represents the workers, they both sell policy to wealthy Capitalists, and that's it.

Probably not, since we are on Lemmy.ml and not Lemmy.world, though I'm sure a few will be upset.

100% agree with you. But I would counter and say changing it from the outside/replacing it is a last resort as it will lead to complete instability while things get sorted - this is exactly what Putin wants.
