Why'd you post this thread twice? I only care about Bernie and Tulsi. Fuck every other Democrat.
All are the left wing of capital.
Tulsi Gabbard won't fight for socialism and Sanders is a coward who won't fight election fraud. Everyone else is a disgusting piece of shit. Nothing to get excited about, it's time to smash through the two-party system if we're serious at all about electoral politics.
Stop.
You don't have to be. I can understand feeling like it's better to abstain from electoral politics entirely (armchairs are comfy after all). I'm just saying if you were interested in electoral politics as a strategy, the first order of business is to dismantle Duverger's Law with a voting system that can get third parties elected.
Electoral politics are useful for accelerationism. They can't fix the system, but people have to learn that the hard way. So get the "best" people elected and draw attention to how they fail to fix things.
This worked really well the last 100 years
If we look at countries without a two party system, we see similar results where political power coalesces around groups of "conservative" and "progressive" liberals. This isn't worth fighting for and our efforts would be better spent organizing in our neighborhoods and workplaces than trying to reform the system.
Got any better ideas?
