This is delusional. Direct action absolutely has its place, but all the things you mentioned were ultimately won at the ballot box. As it should be. Don't let a childish revolution fetish blind you to what constitutes a viable framework for lasting progress.

Edit - "Has." As in he has a ball. Or she has a textbook.

It's funny how libs think they can tell me when direct action is necessary, and it's always in the past tense, never in the present.

It's funny when ML thinks they are the only leftists

I am a ML and everything I have seen of Jenkem's posting here makes me think they are probably a leftist.

We probably don't agree on everything, but they're no liberal.
