    Actually, US politics is EXTREMELY important. Whether Trump or Biden wins, less so.

        Yeah, case in point: Glen Greenwald jerking off his ego by showing the world that he is such a principled liberal that he will attack Biden right before the election for something that literally had nothing to do with Biden and everything to do with him surrounding himself with fucking jack asses.

            I'm not sure responding to chapo.chat threads while I am bored on night shift qualifies as fixated.

                I like the chapo community, don't get me wrong, but going from the only thing on earth is Bernie Sanders to edgey electorialism doesn't even matter threads is pretty cringe, and the image above is this sort of thing elevated to the national stage.

                    electoralism isn't real is an oversimiplification. There are contradicitons within the bourgeoisie and those contradictions play out electoral politics. Voting isn't a vehicle for revolution as such, but which factions of the Bourgeoisie control the organs of state power has real domestic and international implications.

                    To suggest otherwise is, in my opinion, to fall victim to anarco-edgeyism
