            Oh, sure. There’s absolutely no reason for anybody to be dissatisfied by the current system. Everything is pretty much perfect!

                  Again, I never said there’s no system that disenfranchises people. You realize you’re saying this in response to me accusing you of manufacturing arguments out of nothing.

                  What I said was, they were not forced by “the system” to do anything. Any more than you have been. Or do you live in the woods currently?

                    Who used the word “force?” The system is coercive and entropic. Work where you’re allowed until you die. You get paid what you are allotted. Your value is based on your job and your ability to earn. If you’re a woman or a minority, you’re second class. Police budgets grow and enforcement becomes more violent every year. Politicians and CEOs are working together to exploit your labor until you die early from chronic disease.

                    I didn’t think I had to break it down as if I was explaining to a child, but here we are. Now pretend like you don’t understand why she ran.
