This wasn't supposed to come off as "defeatism" just that people ignore these truths and want to act like the majority of people aren't being blatantly ~~ignored~~ suppressed.

The US has been an oligarchal democracy for decades now where the individuals vote means nothing as everything will be decided behind the scenes by the "elite" class.

Sounds an awful lot like defeatism. No need for the quotes. Your response doesn't make it any better. "We are being supressed, that's the the truth, we can't do anything".
