      why do you think voting is futile in the U.S. when it has been successfully used by “populist” aka “democratic” movements in other countries? Specifically, I’m thinking Brazil or Mexico most recently. Not being combative but really just trying to learn more about why you think that’s true. Definitely open to the possibility that I’m wrong about this and just want to hear more.

      I hadn’t heard the bad takes myself from West, but happy to be enlightened on it. He has seemed pretty morally consistent as far as I’ve seen, but like I said just because of ballot access I’m thinking Stein could be the strategic move to try to effect change on the electoral front.
