We should march head-first into a new exciting bad thing without question because the other bad thing was bad.

Incredible argument

Your criticism of the "new bad thing" holds absolutely no water. It's just more of the same, but with different players and different methods.

>more of the same >different players and different methods

doesn't really sound the same to me but I guess we can just agree to disagree

Yes, it's just the same. Rich people once again have a disproportionally high influence in people's opinions. It's just different rich people now.

Criticizing the system on this basis won't accomplish anything. Even if you win and get rid of it, we're all just going to once again end up under the influence of rich people in whatever new system replaces it. Search for the root cause.
