For me, voting for a Hawkins type figure serves two purposes :
1. a vote for someone who most closely shares my values
2. raising public awareness and building popular opposition to the political and corporate elites, who have left the average person for dead. It's not really about what can be achieved in a single election cycle - the amount of work that needs undoing and reconfiguring is too big for that. It's really about getting these ideas out there and part of everyday, majority discourse.
