    Yeah my synthesis is that

    • electoralism can do small but significant things
    • they’ll probably just get fed up and start blasting us
    • political work is seen by most people as one of only two ways to demonstrate an ability to lead a society. The other is being a capitalist.
    • burning shit down is just going to make relatively comfortable people think you’re crazy and violent
    • there’s value in demonstrating that you already tried the nice way. They did this in Russia for example
    • if America came under the control of even a super half-ass demsoc regime, it would probably (probably) be much less willing to kill leftists in other countries than Democrats or Republicans. This can give a ton of breathing room to people worldwide

      I’m with you and would add that if they start blasting us (let’s say figuratively for now, ideally not literally), then a lot of people are gonna feel cornered and jump to a revolutionary tendency.

      It’s one of the contradictions of DemSoc thinking (I have multiple frames of mind and this is just one of them), but if the DemSoc movement is successful in its aims does that rule out revolutionary activity? Does an alternative path to building socialism exist that doesnt require a revolution? Idk

      Part of the answer is here though:

      if America came under the control of even a super half-ass demsoc regime, it would probably (probably) be much less willing to kill leftists in other countries than Democrats or Republicans. This can give a ton of breathing room to people worldwide
