You aren't wrong. TBF, it is a comic remarking at the broad ways our system directs us to feel and think. Comics typically aren't about nuanced discussion but rather a blunt point. Our political discourse driven by corporate media does focus on voting as the only systematic driver for change edit(as well as creating) a paralyzing despair. More MUST be put into the other levers of democracy, as you point out.
