Don’t you think that’s going to have some affect on how/if people vote in the primaries?

Of course it does, I’ve never intended to convey believing otherwise. The ownership class is never going to say “I feel bad about having won this way because people aread.about it so next time I’ll put my resources towards electing someone who check my privilege.” We have to focus on the things we can actually do, and voting is the absolute minimum. And when I look at the history and present electability math of 3rd parties vs the major parties, I’m left with the conclusion that at the state and federal level, the only thing I can do to effect change is voting in the primaries. That doesn’t mean I think the DNC is looking out for me or sitting back to let then system work. It just means I don’t think any other option has any possible chance of working. And pretty much everybody who doesn’t already agree just gets incensed at the idea without having any practical alternative. Do you have an alternative suggestion?
