    like being trapped in a time loop,

    Yes… and you have decided to blame leftists for this instead of the political racketeers who invented and maintains this cyclical pseudo-democratic spectacle itself.

    How liberal of you… you, a (supposed) “anti-capitalist.”

    You can’t be a liberal and an anti-capitalist, Clyde - you have to decide which you’re going to be.

    “Voting doesn’t work, because you can’t fix an inherently flawed system from within the system.”

    And they are correct.

    “Voting is just part of the system of oppression by keeping people complacent from making real changes.”

    And they are still correct.

    In my memory this anti-voting/vote boycotting goes back at least to 2000 Bush/Gore.

    Nope. It was a thing long before the Russian Revolution, genius - it’s only you liberals that are now finding out how utterly hollow your “liberal democracy” truly is and always have been. Leftists have known that before Marx or Bakunin even went through puberty.

    Now let’s say I’m completely wrong,

    Yes. Let’s.

          Not a liberal. But it’s to be expected that the most productive dialog we can get out of someone like you is regurgitation of more labels and thought terminating cliches.

          The void of inaction you have to offer the world is more empty phrases and faux anger. Keep at it. Things will change for better with or without you. The universe keeps moving on regardless of how much you choose to participate in it. You can contribute to building something or just sit here behind a keyboard sniffing your farts. You only get one life to live.

      You kinda crashed out and lost the plot, you were claiming that leftists were doing lots of voting up until 2024, but you just confirmed my whole point that leftists did not vote.

        You kinda crashed

        Is that your excuse for blaming leftists instead of the political racketeers who got you into this situation in the first place?

        Try harder.
