I think it's cute that you believe it's easier to "create a whole new system of power" than it is to reform a political party by primarying bad actors that don't do what their constituents want, which has literally been done multiple times in American history and was just done to the Republican party by conservative voters over the last 2 decades.
Pick up a history book.
Or start a revolution yourself. I'm sure people will follow you....
Never said its easy. Just said that we need to start.
I have picked up a history book. I have watched people with small groups make massive changes and they didn't rely on electoralism as the first front or an important front in their battle for liberty. This strategy is only pushed by privileged liberals that think they can wait out each administration to just vote the better candidate in while the minorities suffer due to lack of local organization.
Those of us on the ground know better which is why were are helping our local communities now.
