Because they built the the weapons in a way to benefit themselves and to be incapable of ending their power. Voting is nothing but allowing the populace the illusion of choosing their master without the opportunity to change the power structures.

If that were the case there would be no effort to disenfranchisement. Still if we as leftist can’t complain about our lack of representation given that we are not even trying to be represented; your comment is a case in point.
If you just decided to show up to a marathon would you be able to finish? Maybe you are that fit, but the reality is it takes a lot of effort and training. If we at leftists don’t put any effort into the politics around us then we should not be surprised we are not crossing any kind of finish line.
okay but what if you don’t want representive democracy if so then you wouldn’t train to enact it that would be like aiming to run a marathon by only biking.

Fair enough. Still you are lamenting, per the meme, that its not addressing your concerns. Further you currently live in one and should take even the smallest steps to your direction.
