That’s what I’m saying. I know voting is bare minimum activism but like it’s more than nothing and you’ll never stop people from engaging in electoralism so what if you just got to tell all of the people in your neighborhood a socialist wants to freeze your rent?
voting is not activism but spending the effort and making the connections to align disparate people and organizations under a single banner of a coherent political platform that is very far to the left of the current regime is a worthwhile endeavor whose results will be felt long after this election, regardless of its outcome
I would agree that 99% of voting isn’t activism but when voting just once can literally freeze rent for millions of proletarians, it is (a very minor form of) activism. Looks good to attach the socialist label to something like that
