    This is my third option:

    • Continue voting for the least-bad option (I do not believe a truly good option exists)
    • Build communities that support and protect each other.
      • When communities become big enough, they will wield power of their own, and “the people in charge” will have no choice but to negotiate (see churches).

    Its the definition tho:

    Marginalization

    The act of placing a person or thing in a position of lesser importance, influence, or power; the state of being placed in such a position:

    The social marginalization of overweight adolescents may further reduce their self-esteem and increase depression.

    Because marginalized groups are weak because they don’t grasp their power. Numbers are irrelevant without coordinated organization. A hundred separate marginalized groups taking separate action can never compete with centralized power. Only when those groups unify with a common purpose and course of action can the power of their numbers be actualized
