    It’s not that I am more concerned with it, it’s that the whole point of the post is to deride people for choosing voting over the revolution. So my answer was that right now nobody is carrying out revolutionary acts. You seem to think that they are and therefore the point focuses on what such an act is. It is not that I don’t see value in other actions, just that they don’t fall in the category of the car in the picture going straight.

      People are organizing for revolution right now. That’s practical work, and is necessary. Voting does not do that. Neither does random assassination. Simple as that.

        “That’s practical work, and is necessary” 100% agree. Now let’s say a natural disaster wipes one of the organizations out. Would any of their current actions have moved the revolutionary movement further? Or would it have disappeared along with the group? If their actions have moved the revolutionary work movement forward even if they stop existing right now, please point me to a specific instance. That’s all I’m saying.
