Just to be clear: Right wing ELECTED Congress members blocked Obama's scotus picks and packed the courts with Trump's picks. Every horror and fascist we are seeing was put there by rightwing lockstep mobilized voters. Voting works and it is working very very well for the right.

Not american but I voted simply so that the political parties I don't like essentially get another vote. Inducing apathy in the opposition is how right wing parties fester their way in. Atleast we have a culture of "if you don't vote you don't get to complain, so go do it."

And it honestly worked this year. The incredibly right wing political party (with policies of build a border wall, kick out immigrants, lowering taxes, allow the hunting of endagered species) in sweden this year got way less votes than usual, I think it landed around 16%? Voting genuinely does work
