      I’m saying anyone listening to his shitty advice is a lazy fuckwit. I don’t know or care who he is - but abstaining from voting is how we end up with fascists and antisocial capitalists in power.

      I’d rather be a “class traitor” than see my friends get marginalized and put in cages because I sat on my ass and didn’t vote.

        Imagine not caring about one of the most influential people in US Progressive political history.

            Considering how the US was leading the labor movement in the West during his lifetime, it’s still a problem that you don’t know who he is.

              His input clearly wasn’t very effective. The US is basically an openly fascist state at this point, and the only “friends” it acknowledges are Russia and North Korea - so the whole “don’t bother voting” advice seems to be working exactly as well as expected.
