In every election “left-leaning” neoliberals always try to guilt-trip Marxists into voting for their candidates with the usual schpiel: “Your party doesn't have enough votes to win. You are just letting conservatives win”. What do you tell these people?

It doesn’t take to long for me luckily enough so I do vote for hun, but I vote for whatever candidate I want to.

If I like their policies then they will deserve my vote. I don’t vote on party lines. You have to earn my vote.

I’m also referring mainly to local and state elections. Those at least matter quite a bit. Federal elections are complete spectacle and dogshit.
