I was saying this years ago but at this point: no. Fuck that system, I will not legitimize it, or the assholes blaming me for their own electoral failures. Fuck you¹, no, never again. Not in this system.

I get why you feel that way, but the reality is that if you abstain then there is no reason to even consider your opinion or desires. If your just going to say no because you’re not getting everything then you’ll just be excluded and everyone else will get something. Case in point the let’s relevance today. They don’t really support any part, nor do they work to make their own; as such you can ignore them. Protests? War? People that don’t want to build a third party are unlikely to fight. Do you know who FARC is? They are a political party now. But they also were before.
Nobody in power has ever done this. You’re showing so much privilege it has an event horizon.
you’ll be excluded
So like always?
everyone else will get something
Oh like the federally free weed single payer healthcare and not funding the Zionists that upwards of 60% of Americans want? Get out of your god damn fantasy world.
Exactly, you’ve abstained and you won’t organize a third party. You’ve done everything to not be taken seriously. The left broadly doesn’t want to, so it will keep being irrelevant
I didn’t abstain. Most people I knew on the left didnt used to either. Fuck you. I’m more than a lefty; I fit into lots of demographics, and not one of them has ever won jack shit by voting.
Everything you’re saying is from a dog shit Arron Sorkin fantasy. I find it deeply offensive for reasons you can’t and do not want to understand.
Fuck you and fuck your nation-state. You are why we have fascism. This is your doing and you can’t even understand why.
This take right here is why people turn against leftist politics… homie is telling you to participate in democracy as well as other forms of organization and resistance, and you’re all “fuck that I’m not gonna do nothin”
Like this is a dumb hill to die on, and you’re polarizing people that could be your allies
there is not voting, and there is having your vote be conditional. i may not vote democrat if a progressive candidate is not available, but third party is always an option instead.

I do participate in democracy–I just don’t vote and endorse the state anymore. Dems have poisoned that.

Elections are one front in the class war. Leftist keep ignoring it and wonder why they get nothing.
