The Earth only can survive with Humans with Humanity, it's not only the rich, it's ignorance, stupidity, fanatism and greed the problem. It's all the stupid people which vote for those which give power to the rich (MAGA rednecks, fascists, flat earther, anti-vax, influencers "Climate change is a Hoax", buyed media fom these people with fake news, etc.).
The bottom line is not that someone is rich, but what he do with the wealth and how he earned it..
Voting for Democrats is also voting for those that give power to the rich. But this must be looked at in the larger context of the U.S. political system, which shows that it’s not a problem of voters but of the essence of the state itself.
All of the issues in your analysis were explained over a century ago: https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1917/staterev/
Yes US is different, because it isn't a real Democracy, with 2 Partys, one conservative neoliberal and other extreme right wing christo-fascists.
Clearly you weren’t talking ab the U.S. or implying the legitimacy of U.S. democracy.
