What’s pragmatically changed over the last four years?
What’s improved?
I spent nearly three years just smoking weed and trying to escape all this nonsense—America; the hypocrisy—but, I wasn’t able to get out.
I wasn’t able to break free.
I suppose I can slide some photos in here soon, but there’s no end to that. Body cam footage changes nothing (pragmatically) and protest photos have become photo shoots and terror-porn.
How many bodies have to stack up under the boot heel of this star-spangled machine?
How long will fools love their foolishness and loathe wisdom?
Is nobody else just flat-out o v e r this nonsense?
How much longer will cowards insist on pouring blood into a bottomless bucket?
Is there no more sense?
Have all gone to sleep?
Where’s the revolution? Where’s the upheaval?
I’m tired, y’all.
My voice grows hoarse and my eyes, weary.

The definition of insanity: doing the same thing and expecting different results.
Translation?
You can't expect the system that ENSLAVES you, to also be the system that SAVES you.
PEOPLE YOU NEED TO REGISTER TO VOTE, YOUNG PEOPLE NEED TO HOLD OUR LEADERS ACCOUNTABLE AND CHANGE THIS COUNTRY, HERE IS HOW TO DO IT, IN EVERY SINGLE STATE
The first primaries are coming up fast and if Bernie Sanders is going to turn his lead in the polls in early states into a primary victory young people NEED to vote. In just a few months all this activism comes to a head and Bernie Sanders has a very real chance at winning.
Bernie Sanders is already winning in two of these early states and by much wider margins than previous Democratic challenger candidates. This can become a real victory, it really can.
Unfortunately though there is a huge obstacle to overcome, a lot of Bernie Sanders supporters are young voters who consistently fail to show up to the polls come election day.
If young people turn out to vote though at rates far above 13%, even as low as 50%, that would be MASSIVE. That would fundamentally change how our government responds to the needs of young people. It is a tall order, but it isn’t that hard. Registering to vote isn’t that difficult and there is no reason that anyone should not be registered by the deadline. It needs to be done soon, but there is still plenty of time.
Okay actually, for some people there isn’t much time left. NEW YORKERS REGISTER TO VOTE NOW! Everyone else, there is some breathing room, but get on it. Below is a link to all the paper work you need, from there it is up to you. Share with your friends and family, help them register, help them get to the polls, and lets get Bernie Sanders elected president.

GREEN STATES: Most Green states are mixed primaries, meaning INDEPENDENTS or NON-AFFILIATED voters and DEMOCRATS can vote for Bernie Sanders. You can not vote for Bernie Sanders as a registered REPUBLICAN, in one of the red states.
ONE MORE THING IN THE STATE HIGHLIGHTED BELOW YOU CAN VOTE FOR BERNIE SANDERS IN THE PRIMARY ELECTION IF YOU ARE 17 AND WILL BE 18.
EVERYONE REGISTER TO VOTE. WE CAN WIN THIS THING. WE WILL WIN THIS THING. BERNIE SANDERS 2016!
