The problem is that primaries are giving people the illusion of a choice. This country hasn't been a democracy or a republic for many decades yet it's constantly held up as something we are protecting. People decide who the president is as much as an employee of Google or Meta decide who their CEO is.
This is democracy in name only. There are much better alternatives in existence. Don't defend the current system, build a new one that is more resilient and fairer.
