That isn’t really what people are saying. It’s more that voting cannot bring about socialism, while revolution can, and that therefore treating voting as the primary political outlet for people hampers the organizing efforts needed for revolution.

Yeah .ml has always been special with these hot takes. I empathize with their reservations around the broader dem party it is still where the progressive movement lives. Its hard to see them as serious when they are more concerned with purity testing. Like I get it. It would be nice to have the most gung ho types in congress and senete, but even a “shit lib dem” is going to move slower on all the things they care about than a crusader R. I guess its easy to wait for the right candidate when you are not under siege.
