Keep people from doing grass roots/revolutionary organizing is kind of bull.
Voting takes like max 15 minutes, unless yr polling place is really busy or far away (and it shouldn’t be). You can vote, and then devote the rest of your time to building mass social movements.
Seriously.
Reform vs. revolution is kind of a false dichotomy.
true true.
today I saw someone refer to Bernie’s campaign as “the revolution” and quoted the revolution will not be televised and that filled me with rage.
Goddamnit, that is fucking terrible. They also realize he almost certainly won’t get the candidacy, right?
well it pissed me off because that fucking song or piece or whatever you want to call it literally has the line “nbc will not be able predict the winner at 8:32
or report from 29 districts the revolution will not be televised” and they want to call a presidential campaign a revolution with that song…
I mean yeah, there are so many things wrong with “Bernie sanders is the revolution” I’m not sure it’s possible to list them all
