Leftists Vs Centrists Vs Right Wingers
if you believe in direct action organizing I don’t see why you would see forcing a vote as somehow a bad thing, you can organize and do electoral pressure to push from all fronts, saying this is a waste of time is just giving yourself an excuse not to do anything and reeks of “I’m smart because I think this is dumb but I’m also not doing anything to help”
it’s an enormous leap to assume people calling this fight a waste of time aren’t doing anything.
helping organize a local green schools campaign and public transit campaign. hbu?
This is a waste of time because of the desired outcome. What will a vote accomplish? We’ll out the bad actors within the party and then everyone will see them as the cretins they are and lo and behold the Democratic party will swing left overnight? This is conspiracy minded bs that imagines that a great revelation to the public will somehow result in political change rather than a progression of material forces. You’re turning material dialectics back on its head towards Hegelian dialectics where the superstructure is the engine of history rather than the base. There is no end goal here, it’s just back to trying to distinguish bad and good actors again so we can jerk off about how much we love some and hate the others and then we’ll repeat the process in 2-4 years. Join a fucking union or something, jesus
it’s not a “conspiracy” to think forcing corporate Dems to explain to their voters why they voted against healthcare for all is a good thing and beneficial to the long term goal of passing M4A
