    Vote progressives, socialists and trade unionists all the way. It’s always been this way, and the Capitalists just keep coming up with ways to make culture wars and smear campaigns and the middle class keeps thinking they’re just one big win away from being billionaires themselves… And they keep the system going just enough for it not to implode.

      Vote

      yeah, there it is. there is a reason one of the sides is saying voting doesn’t work, and you described it yourself.

      socialism is not an electoralist ideology, and the ones saying it is might be lying to you about being on the left. for those same reasons.

        There’s never ideal candidates, you only ever get to nudge… and even that should only be one part of altering society and culture.

          a small part, only limited nudging allowed this way. politics is thankfully much more than that.
