Democracy has come to the natural end of its life. One party depends on immigration for its popularity, and everyone else has slowly but finally figured out that this is a terrible thing that is a form of genocide.
Many voters, in a type of tantrum, are saying that they will stay home or not vote for the one party that opposes the genocide.
In other words, you can vote for the party that might do good stuff, or the party that without doubt will do really bad stuff.
Like most political opinions, this is an argument for inaction and giving up instead of taking a few steps to address the problem. The imperfect party may be annoying, but they are better than the other, and can be lobbied once in power to do things (very few people do this).
The argument for inaction is reminiscent of the Boomer conservatives who collected guns and canned food for the “inevitable” civil war or race war, only for their kids to sell off all that stuff after the Boomers died of preventable lifestyle diseases.
We are surrounded by compensatory surrogate activities: drop out communities that will be taxed out of existence, white nationalists hoarding guns and “memorabilia,” hitting gyms, no political solutions, waiting for the race war, hoping everyone will convert to Jesus, based Russia will save us, and so on.
All of these activities are substitutes for effective action, in order to have an emotional tantrum instead so that the voter “feels better” about losing. This is equivalent to wanting to get executed by Communists so you get the ultimate “I told you so!” that belittles the people arguing with you online.
People cannot think, or rather, avoid thinking because instead they aim for maintaining their own emotional state through symbols. This is what happens when people become individualists, or those who think about their own individual convenience only and not fixing systems as a whole.
We may not like democracy; obviously, it has failed by steering the first world into bankruptcy, a competence crisis, non-competitiveness, and diversity genocide. However, it is what we have right now, and we either use it or we do not. There is no middle.
What we might do is start by thinking. We should visualize what we want, and then figure out the steps to get there. At first, these steps will not be satisfying, but as momentum builds, we will get to where we need to be.
