      Ultimately, there’s no reason the strategies of voting and direct action can’t both be applied together. One does not cancel the other out.

      It’s like you didn’t even look at your own pamphlet. It backs up his exact statement.

          Idk man, theres not too much debate on who to vote for. There’s a clear lesser evil and theres an avowed fascist. The quoted paragraph just reaffirms what his one sentence says, that voting isn’t sufficient.

          I like the pamphet. I think it hits most everything important. If you only vote and the entirety of your efforts are spent on electoralism and not direct action, its a lot if wasted time. But if you cant even take 20 mins to vote every 2 years, or worse you’re advocating people who aren’t fascist sit it out, you need to rethink what you’re doing.

            Some think that voting is enough. I don’t think it matters without organizing and direct action.
