I don't think there is a more clear indictment of the idea that voting is a tool of resistance than the current political situation of the US and France.
In the US, marginalised people are still actively being killed by the government because the bourgeoisie, of which Biden himself is a part of, still benefit from their suffering. They can cry all the crocodile tears they want but that's just a fact. They won't help you unless it helps their bottom line, because the whole system is corrupt.
In France, I can see how it clearly works from the front row seats: people voted in order to avoid giving Macron any kind of majority, hoping that he'd need to actively compromise with other parties, but he's been frocibly passing his laws in ways that completely override the Assemblée Nationale, essentially making his government an oligarchy that completely disregards the elected representatives. His government is also actively parotting fascist rethoric to marginalize leftist MPs and target minorities.
Voting doesn't fucking work.
The system needs fixing and you can't vote people into a system to destroy it. It will not work.
If you want your ideology to win, if you really want to fix your political system, you have to actually do things and voting isn't that. Voting only further legitimizes the opressive state. You need to find ways to circumvent it.
Find your people. Share resources and skills. Create a hub. Build things outside the established power stucture that it must contend with. Go on strikes. Feed the homeless. Throw seed bombs. Blow up a pipeline.
