    Okay so let’s accept the premise of this post for a minute: “Both major political parties in the US are equally bad.”

    What am I supposed to do now? What action can I take to facilitate change?

    I’d argue that this is a perspective that simply isn’t helpful even if true. I think it’s an excuse to tune out instead of getting engaged. I think it’s an excuse to wish for a better future instead of putting in the real work it takes to make systemic changes that can actually improve people’s lives. It’s a perspective that encourages doing nothing because ‘nothing matters anyway’.
