It is still helpful to be heard and minimize harm.
Voting does not accomplish that! Voting will NOT make you heard and voting will NOT minimize harm. Your insistence that it does accomplish these things is what is harmful.
Telling people to do useless things saps their energy away from doing things that actually are meaningful like organizing. Voting is used as a tool by the bourgeois to get people to think they “did their duty” politically, so they can relax and not worry about having to do more even though “more” is still the bare minimum (voting is less than bare minimum). You have been duped by the bourgeois. Smarten up.
