    yeah spending thousands of hours volunteering and forming working political relationships with likeminded explicit socialists with common goals in your community is a terrible idea, no one should do it

        i don’t mean this rudely but it sounds like you have no real life experience with the actual people working the campaign and their politics, or you met the absolute weirdest brainwormed motherfucker out there and are basing your entire mental image around it

          Social chauvinists have two moves, as you have demonstrated in this thread. First is to mimick the democrats and left-punch with lesser evil and harm reduction arguments. The other is to act condescending and arrogant like it’s just a fact that you are right already. Not once has any of you leftoid succs addressed a single one of my criticisms adequately

      That’s what I’m saying. I know voting is bare minimum activism but like it’s more than nothing and you’ll never stop people from engaging in electoralism so what if you just got to tell all of the people in your neighborhood a socialist wants to freeze your rent?

        voting is not activism but spending the effort and making the connections to align disparate people and organizations under a single banner of a coherent political platform that is very far to the left of the current regime is a worthwhile endeavor whose results will be felt long after this election, regardless of its outcome
