Are you so intellectually impoverished you cannot imagine anything outside the strict binary of “do nothing” and “press button that does nothing”?
At least pressing the button is doing something cause I’m moving my arm?
I suggest Lenin to start off with, then finding likeminded people to work with. Turns out it actually is possible for the masses to “do something” very funny.
Here’s a deal. I’ll press your button and vote blue if you join a communist party and begin organizing (please read Lenin before contributing suggestions to your new comrades though). If trump is such a fascist threat we should do everything we can right? After all, Hitler and the fascists so hated communists the first things they did was lock them up and break the unions with violence. Then it was the communists eventually who saved the world from fascism. Communism has a proven track record defeating fascism and surely “it’s the lesser of two evils” right?
If we’re being so realistic and pragmatic, why don’t we use historical evidence for how to beat Trump?
Do you think we think revolutions just… happen? That we aren’t working incredibly hard trying to find allies, build the labor movement, build the indigenous movement, the queer movement, the anti-racist movement? That we’re not trying to bring those struggles together under the same revolutionary banner? I understand you might not see much of this as being related to leftists because socialists and communists often put aside their specific political labels when it’s time to organize, but I guarantee that if you go and do something real (not voting) you’ll immediately start coming across the communists. That’s what a communist does, in practice.

All I’ve ever heard from communists are theory and a mythical “revolution” that’ll happen any day now. At least the liberals have done something
yeah like genocide in gaza
