This question refers to the text “Mass Incarceration as a Form of Racialized Social Control” by Michelle Alexander.

In this text, Alexander points to Reagan's presidency as a moment in which the rhetoric of "color-blindness" began. This led to racial discourse being employed in new and adapted ways that reacted to the needs of the period.

She argues that Reagan employed a strategy in which he exploited racial hostility and conflict without openly referencing race. Instead, he used terms such as "welfare queens" and "criminal predators" that did not necessarily mentioned race, but that people understood as having racial connotations. In this way, he appealed to poor, white Republicans who felt angry about the support that the Democratic Party gave to the civil rights movement.

Alla [95]

The variable that a scientist observes to change while conducting an experiment is called the responding variable .

The responding variable (also called dependent variable) is the variable that a scientist observes to change while conducting a scientific experiment. The responding variable depends on the independent variable (also called manipulated variable). When the independent variable is changed by the scientist, its effect on the responding variable is usually observed and recorded. Responding variables can be observed (such as taste) or measured (such as length) in an experiment.

Answer:

The way I see this is less a question on whether or not democracy is good, but whether it's within suitable boundaries to work correctly. The overarching state exists to keep a certain order, and, if someone is to see that status quo as bad, they often won't see a point to voting. If you agree don't think this, you should engage in discussion with them about the current status quo. If you do, you should try to find the least bad candidate if you choose to vote, while focusing on actions outside of a ballot.
