    Unfortunately, there are no folk heroes to save us. The fact of the matter is that we need to vote in all countries, and we need to vote not for “safe” centrists but for those who will actually push us towards more progressive policies. No “but this time is different, like the other twenty times, because of the scary right-wing!”, it’s do or die.

    That’s really it. Robin Hood in this day and age is the IRS and whatever equivalents. Fund them, and give them the powers we need without fear.
