MODERATORS
Thatās a form of cognitive distortion, not a political strategy. Mamdani won against 10 other candidates because we showed up. We have literal evidence thatās all it takes. Quit with the victim mentally and take your country back.
Typical all or nothing response. Letās forget the 535 members of Congress have primaries every 2-4 years so we can complain that āit was either Fetterman or Dr. Ozā when Fetterman beat three primary contenders, two of whom were progressive, in a primary that saw <9% turnout.
If you think abstaining is the solution, why has it only made things worse for the last 40 years?
Nobody says abstaining is the solution. Electoralism in general is not a solution. Organizing, joining working class parties with revolutionary intent, is the only solution.
