It’s not a voter problem, it’s a capitalism problem.
In a capitalist democracy, it’s capital that sets the rules for governance, not the other way around. You can have a social democracy, but you can’t undo capital in a capitalist democracy by voting.
I agree that spending boatloads of money on propaganda is an effective way of dictating the terms of an election.
It’s possible that you just don’t agree that capital owners have more money and influence than the rest of the country by orders of magnitude, and that somehow if we just yell really really loudly that we can overcome that immense power differential.

You’re incredibly defeatist. You absolutely can, that’s why they keep spending so much money trying to influence our vote.
