Unfortunately, I am a disenfranchised voter. I live in a very red state with very red history, and even our blue is significantly more purple. When my best case scenario is being gerrymandered into a district, where I vote for someone with no obligation to their position that are at least 51% against my interest for a slightly better scenario, that with high certainty will not flip for at least 12 more years. It's the hope that kills you, I'm anticipating down votes but consider this objectively and demand something better!
I feel like if voting isn't an option to realistically effect change, the correct response isn't apathy, it's activism. Whether that means changing minds around you or changing where you are or what I can't say, but
Or working to change circumstances around you, i.e. voting for and supporting local elections and state measures to change the system to better enfranchise yourself federally.
