This is extremely fatalistic. I agree that the system is severely flawed, but your conclusion that struggle for a better country is pointless is hopeless, and is not shared by a lot of the country. for many people, political struggle is necessary. This sort of fatalism is only really a tenable position when your livelihood is not at stake.

Fully agreed. And if you don’t like the people in Congress, start volunteering for people you think are good. Or make yourself into one of those people. It’s not fast, it’s not easy, but it is possible. And fight for law changes that will help change - I would highly suggest advocating for ranked choice voting.
