    Voting does not solve shit. It is not a solution, it is a placebo. Real reform can only come from revolution, the system cannot change itself.

      I suppose you never take painkillers alongside antibiotics? Since only the second one can stop the illness

        Do you ever see people promoting painkillers as a standalone solution? Because that’s 99% of voters entrenched into their tribe bullshit.

          Could you two three stop talking to the straw man you’ve built of the other side and actually engage with each other?

            Engage with what? Electorialism is not a solution, there is no point engaging in it.

            Especially when the people who preach “you can vote and revolt” never push the revolt narrative, it’s only that voting that concerns them.

              Engage with the person, not the mental image of what you think they are or represent.
              To me it looked very much like you were talking past each other.

              You don’t have to explain your stance to me, I understand it well enough.
