    I think I may not have been clear in my last comment.

    I agree and was not saying he advocated for voting for liberals. We should not be voting for Biden and I personally plan on voting for the PSL candidates at this time.

    My argument was with the “participation in bourgeois elections is an endorsement of those systems” part of the comment.

        Essentially using the pretense of electoralism in order to actually strengthen the illegal party apparatus.

        I thought that came across in my original comment?

        My comments are pretty lazy and short here, so they won’t capture additional nuance, but he’s also saying (in the piece I linked) there are other benefits to participating in bourgeois elections that can help strengthen the party by helping fence-riders or those that haven’t been exposed to socialist rhetoric be convinced to join the party. This is in addition to other subversive actions.

        If your sole political effort is participation in elections, that’s obviously endorsement of the existing system. Just in case, I was also not the person advocating for a vote for Democrats.
