That's why instead of grasping at the existing system until its dying breath and focusing on electioneering* and playing within the rules they've set out for us, and eventually just wait around for them to fight it out for power over us, it's more important to focus on building up our communities and creating alternatives to the existing systems, or "dual power" (from communal fridges and pantries, to libraries for everything from books to tools to sewing patterns to seeds, communal child care, educational clubs, agitprop groups, and so on and on and on) so that when things inevitably collapse (because that's where capitalism concludes), we have existing networks and frameworks and solidarity to build on, from the bottom up.

*Before the libs derail like they always do - I never said don't vote, but focusing the amount of energy that you do on doing the bare minimum within the rules set out to you by your oppressors doesn't make you antifascist freedom fighters.
