    If you’re willing to vote for someone committing genocide, for someone who’s let COVID rip and destroyed public health, for someone who kisses and embraces fascists then you’re no leftist.

              That’s cute. Unfortunatly most of the world cant afford that luxury right now. In the US especially, keep it like that and you wont have to worry about voting at all. Want it or not, we live a capitalist system and I dont see any social revolution coming up anytime soon. Do you have a phone (I bet it’s an iPhone), a car, a computer? Where were those pants you are wearing made again? See my point? Right now we area stuck in it, so if you want to get rid of this unfair system, we’re gonna have to be a bit more strategic than “dont vote capitalist and read…something”. On that last point, I’m surprised you havent made a single recommandation. I’m not much into policital readings but I’ve read Bakunin, Marx, a lot of Chomsky, etc. I’m more into philosophy so I would recommend Nietzsche (Zarathustra, favorite book ever), Spinoza, maybe Rousseau, Cioran and Lao-Tseu for a basic general culture. What are your recommandations? I hope you dont base your ideas only on some privilege white boys playing revolutionaries podcats. Right?

      Actually US system of 2 parties is ridiculous. It forces no real choice, as is the case with every duopoly. It’s practically a cartel.
