    Genuinely laughing at how you construct a false premise and then continue building a mountain of straw men on top of it.

    I guess that’s what happens when liberals abandon reality. Better luck constructing a coherent thought next time!

      You’re absolutely right. Most of these self-proclaimed leftists don’t even pretend to have any clue how to start a revolution, whilst demanding it as the only possible course of action.

        Tbf, they’re mostly well aware that they’re too few in number to violently overthrow the system. So the opening of the OP is a bit of a strawman

        Otoh they watch people looting an electronics store on tv and interpret it as ‘something is brewing’

          There absolutely are folks precisely what the OP is talking about. One verbatim quote from an exchange I had: “Revolution is necessary, electoralism cannot work.”

          He was absolutely adamant that voting is stupid and people shouldn’t bother because we need “true communism” that cannot come from voting.

      There is no vote this election that will result in a better system. I’m not even sure there’s a vote that won’t result in a worse one.

        People were saying the same about Biden and look at all the stuff he did. Green energy, ira, drug price controls, chips act, etc. So yes voting Dems will give you a better system.
