The fact that there are so many valid reasons makes me extremely unhopeful.

To make you more hopeful, they have to constantly fight to keep these systems of oppression in place. We win if/when this stops. All we have to do is keep fighting them. Make them work to oppress us, and it'll crumble.

So the electoral college and the apportionment act will go away, too?

And Americans won’t be a bunch of fucking idiots with the attention span of a goldfish?

And we’ll get proportional representation when they crumble?

Because most of the issues pointed out are structural and have nothing to do with Trump

Well, either they will be fixed or the state collapses eventually. If they keep this up people lose faith in the government.
