It depends what you mean by “work”. While he certainly didn’t see it as sufficient, Marx wasn’t categorically against involvement in electoral politics, so he must’ve seen some “work” in it.

6·4 months agoThe fuck is he even going to do as mayor if he’s not going to rein them in?
This. If he apologizes, then we’ll just be in the position of hoping he’s making a fake apology and actually does shit…which isn’t a good way to be doing politics
You win people over to your positions by putting them out there and defending what you believe
Moreover, this stance by him won’t win anyone over and will demotivate his supporters. At best, if he apologizes then maybe the cops will fuck with him less (lmao)
Where can I book tickets?

23·6 months agoI didn’t ask you to. I think AOC voted wrong. I asked about Talib et al.
Do you think Talib was incorrect in her vote? Do you think her voting to defund Israel was wrong?

The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Stalinists, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is what they have in mind. But, on the contrary, they glorify us with this epithet; it is an honor for us to be Stalinists for while we maintain such a stand the enemy cannot and will never force us to our knees.

345·1 year agoEven if you’re voting Harris et al., don’t you think they should be called out for supporting genocide? Have you even tried to convince Biden or Harris or your reps in Congress to stop supporting genocide?
Moreover, once they know that they can get enough votes and win while supporting genocide, then they’ll know they can do anything and have enough votes to win. While all paths lead to increasingly fascistic governance in the US, the path you’re advocating is the most accelerationist scenario.

8·2 years agoI wouldn’t wish. Shit always goes bad. Best cass scenario I learn a “valuable lesson” through some kinda hackneyed adventure. In the worst case scenario I’m cursed for eternity or some shit

I agree. That’s a different position though than “never do electorlaism”
