    Ahh yes. Because Democrats are bad, that means Republicans aren’t even worse, and other baby brain shit terminally online “leftists” need to pretend is real to maintain the coherence in their world view. Like “Everyone who thinks my strategy is harming the left is a liberal actually” and “Refusing to participate in elections will spontaneously elevate everyone’s class consciousness to the point of revolution”

    Baby brain shit to be sure.

      Nobody says that about elections, though. Marxists disagree with the idea of “lesser evil” voting, but the idea that Marxists think refusal to vote raises class consciousness is a strawman.
