Greek philosophers in 300 BC: Hey, so electoralism is a rigged game, because only wealthy and prestigious families have enough money to finance the popularity contest to get themselves or their puppet candidates elected. Marxists in the 1800s: Electoralism is a rigged game. Capitalists stack every election with their puppets. Political power is subservient to economic power. Liberals in the 2020s: No, electoralism has never worked. But it might work for us this time.

You can make as many disingenuous arguments as you want. At the end of the day, you're still voting for the right.

Pretending to be a leftist on the internet is just sad man.

    You aren't even a leftist though. You just pretend to be one online and con people into voting for right wing parties like the Democrats. Everything about you is disingenuous.
