There definitely are those that do though I think

And tbh I think the more relevant thing that is pointed out here are those that call anyone doing any sort of electoralism/reformism liberals who are worthless. Which, yea, by itself isn't gonna fully fix society but I'd at least rather people suffer less in the meantime

electoralism is disencouraged because the game is rigged. often when you really get into it, there is truly not much difference between the candidates policy-wise.

and if the ruling class wants fascism, they will bend the rules until they get it. i mean, trump was supposed to be in prison, isn't he? didn't he even lose the popular vote in his first term?

i've seen it play out in my country over and over again. genuine-sounding people like mamdani eventually gets de-winged, or removed if they flail too much.
