Nah, based off your other comments and what you know about the constitution and bill of rights, I don't think you come off dumb.

To be fair, this is pretty high concept stuff because while its something that could be done in theory, putting it into practice takes a lot of work.

The only way I have seen ideologies change over time is by basically social engineering them out. In order to do that, you need a lot of people on your side who are also willing to push that agenda. So we would need a lot of people doing things like making memes, having discussions like this, essentially popularizing the idea that we don't need to feel better than others in the sense of, what class do they belong to.

This does already exist but not in a strong way like the other side is, the one that holds all the power. People in charge or in places of authority, billionaire types, etc. they all have the upper hand.

This brings me back to why I don't vote and why I don't participate in certain things that people try to scare me into doing basically.

By not participating, I'm removing myself from this sided argument - after all, there are no options for me to vote for, I don't see any politicians ever wanting to actually change things, they only want to change things within how the system works already. I'm refusing to take part in something I never agreed to and have no real say in.

people have even told me, there isn't a real option to opt out of voting - and that by not voting, I'm actually still voting but now all the votes unaccounted for get factored into the other side winning. That's fear mongering.

If I'm not voting, then I'm just straight up not voting. It shouldn't be able to work the way people are describing it because then its like not voting isn't a possibility that exists in reality. Yet I'm here in reality, not voting.

This is all unfortunately a mind over matter issue where people who have the upper hand, refuse to let anyone else think that otherwise cause then they wouldn't have the upper hand to control people's lives.

But to actually pull that off, you would need to just be better at convincing people. I only have the energy to try sometimes. Most people want to pushback on this ideology because the current one fits them better. And they don't give a shit about other people because again, they probably see themselves as better than who ever else there is out there.
