Ok, so since voting is obviously the only way to enact any sort of political power for non-politicians: feel free to do nothing but feel morally superior until the next election comes around when there is no hope that things improve because people are stupid and there’s no use in convincing anyone who’s “wrong” and/or “evil”. /s
Feel free to keep having the same exact conversations since 1950 every insular naive wannabe college leftist has had with their first-ever interaction with conservative voters in the US.
I’m sure you’ll get real excited afterwards, and talk with all your buddies about how there’s a DEEP wellspring of leftism just waiting to be tapped, and the mass shift in class consciousness is just around the corner. Any day now, bro. Just a few more pamphlets, a few more talks, and they’ll totally be ready for socialism. We’ll be looking at a whole new country.
You live with these people, in their communities, as part of their communities, and you understand on a deeper level why the surface-level “nod-and-agree” in response to politely phrased leftism doesn’t mean shit.
Bruh, I’m not the one dismissing democratic processes for not being ‘proper progressive politics’ sexy enough for a hero of The Revolution to support.
I’m not above participating in a shitty system to stop literal genocide, but it seems that some would prefer to keep their hands clean of shit, and covered, instead, with the blood of folk like me.
I’ll write you a nice letter from RFK’s concentration camps.
You want the feeling of moral superiority? Great, then call Trump evil as much as you want!
You want to understand politics and maybe improve the current situation? Then stop clouding your analysis with that bullshit!
Considering that you have zero interest in voting, well, as a self-proclaimed progressive said just recently…

Yeah. It’s amazing what motivated thinking leads wannabe heroes of The Revolution™ to believe.
Good thing you’re already morally superior to all that vermin we call “humanity”, huh? /s

Yes, yes you are by dismissing the very act of a democratic formation of opinion by debating with one another.
