"Okay, so both parties are bad, but what else can we do other than vote?"

There are going to be a lot of disenfranchised liberals that have lost faith in electoralism. Rather than allow the people to fall into doomerism or denial, what advice would you give people who are realising that western democracies are broken and that voting for the lesser evil is impossible? What action would you tell them to take?

I'm tired of voting and the libs who shame me for not voting. I'm also tired of feeling powerless and overwhelmed by the state of things. I'm just going to keep doing my thing and help my local community by driving my bus then use the money I earn to contribute in mutual aid.
