You are sorely uneducated if you honestly think that.

I know. It’s disheartening.

Economics and politics are intrinsically linked—you really can never talk about one without talking about the other or, at the very least, referencing its impact on how people conduct their lives.

Pretty much we need to change the entire system or nothing will change. You said it yourself, there are only two viable parties under our current system and they are both corrupt and serve the interests of our oppressors.

This is by design. The system of partisanship and electoralist statism, supported and maintained by the capitalist system of economics has never served our interests; it only ever served the interests of the ruling powers. They didn’t buy the government. They built it.

And unfortunately, any time the people attempt to resist the overruling authority, that authority will engage in violence to keep their power. So a fight is inevitable if we ever want things to get better.

It is mutually exclusive and there is nothing that can be done to change that. The system is fundamentally oppressive.
