I think this is the right approach. Your vote — nor the vote of millions of others — would not affect the general agenda of the ruling class. That’s what they are — rulers. It’s going to take massive, widespread education and changing of paradigms for enough people to realize that voting for a new ruler / figurehead isn’t going to change anything. Keep making tech advancements; that’s really what will benefit mankind the most. I think Bitcoin / Blockchain tech is evidence for that.
