She should be the most jokerpilled of anyone in America, she is taking electoralism seriously to an unhealthy degree and seeing how flawed it is, unfortunately it will end up in her career as a socdem politician instead of being big-cool and anti-electoralist
People take electoralism seriously because as unlikely as it is to produce any meaningful improvements, it's at least as likely to do so as anything else. Look at the state of unionization in the U.S., look at how little the massive, months-long protests last summer ultimately changed. It makes zero sense to say that those are realistic options but elections aren't.
No one knows how to build socialism in the imperial core, so no one can say X definitely doesn't work or Y definitely does. And outside the imperial core, we have a number of recent examples of Latin American countries taking big steps leftwards through elections.
And yes, people don't want to risk their lives (or get beaten up, or get fired, etc.). But that's a pretty glaring problem with non-electoral politics, wouldn't you say?
