The Declaration of Independence says God gave us “unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” That governments are instituted to secure those rights, and if government is “destructive of these ends” it is “the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it.”

What’s your point?
My point is that Americans have been trained to be complacent, to forget the radicalism of the American experiment in self-governance. We do not owe it to our government to go along with systems of injustice; our right to vote is our right to make that clear.

This explains your point. I agree with the voting premise, but i wouldn’t say Americans are complacent. I’d say uninterested in true civil discourse and nuance is a better characterization. Debate is the quintessential way to move forward. A lot of good will come of this.

That sounds like complacency to me.

Absolutely. It's like we've been sedated & have forgotten the principles on which we were founded.

This is about the best we can do this year. Drive a wedge in by putting
#2020InTheHouse. Split it wide open with the 2021 statehouse elections, stopping winner-takes-all electoral votes, first-past-the-post, ballot access problems, and gerrymandering. https://www.270towin.com/maps/mLK4j pic.twitter.com/BOfqNq3B7V

The right wing arent complaicent... they're out there demonstrating their right to their own version of the constitution. Sadly and just like much of the bible the constitution can be interpreted for good or ill.

Voting can no longer be counted on as a way to bring about change. Our courts are an illegitimate partisan mockery of Justice. That leaves box number 4.
