    I think we should vote, but I understand that we are not voting for someone to “represent” us. We are voting for our preferred enemy.

    I think the real message here is against engaging in electoralism, which is the political strategy of effecting change through electoral politics, which means canvassing, participating in campaigns, volunteering time and energy beyond the simple act of casting a vote, maybe even attempting to run for office. That’s what they’re saying takes people away from direct action.

      Ah, in that case I fully agree. Thank you for clarifying. :)
