    Continuing to support bourgeois parties will never result in proletarian emancipation. Supporting a violent war criminal with Nazi tattoos is what voting blue no matter who has led to.

      Alleged rapist vs confirmed rapist? I’ll choose the alleged for now, and work to replace him if/when confirmation occurs.

          Sure, but right now, we need that seat. Letting the perfect be the enemy of the not-quite-as-shitty is what gets us the absolute shittiest.

            The Democrats taking the seat is not “us” taking the seat, but a different faction of capitalists. I’m letting good be the enemy of horrible.

                Platner is a former imperialist boot, and does have Nazi tattoos, and continuing to support the democrats over any worker-forward parties will not advance the interests of the working classes. These are my claims, I am not OP, and throwing petty schoolyard insults at me rather than responding to my actual claims isn’t going to help anything.

                No idea what you’re insinuating with the caviar bit.

                    What lies? Are you confusing me with OP? I gave you my 3 claims. Are you denying that Platner is a former imperialist boot? Are you denying his Nazi tattoos? Or are you of the belief that supporting bourgeois parties is a viable path to worker emancipation? Your article is addressing OP, not me, so you’re clearly not actually addressing me.
