Lol I spend my time local organizing and helping my community but that doesn't matter to you clearly.

It only counts if I waste my time advocating for electoralism.

Thats a pretty dumb position and one that is clearly born of privileged.

And you should take an evening to vote as well.

Nope. Going to get a big jacket that says "Voting is for chumps" just so I can watch liberal go off.

Definitely don't think that people should pragmatically vote and then leave it at that instead of wasting anymore time in electoralism

From the person that thinks electoralism will save us...

Yeah great bit of advice.

Just one front in the class war. Thanks for helping fascists win ground without contest and leaving many of us to suffer for it. Not every one has the privileged to not care about the out comes of elections.

Fascist gonna fascist and the Democrats should not have sold us down the river.

I mean arguably you're losing electoral strategy is the reason the fascists are at the door. So take some pride in your own contributions to the mess that we've created.

Vote 3rd party if you are in place where you can.

And I hope you can. I live in deep red texas. 3rd party is anarcho capitalist libertarians, so I vote blue. I am not saying they are then end all be all, but those ancaps get votes and then part of their platform gets mainlined in the R party. Those are material consequences of elections.

I understand that's what you think but I think you're going to be disappointed in the outcome of those actions
