    Not by voting.

    Lol.

    Can you provide examples of countries with viable left leaning parties that didn’t get there by voting?

    You think working class organization is successful without voting in candidates that champion their cause?

      USSR, PRC, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, Nicaragua, Venezuela, etc. were all won through revolution and working class organization. Even then, my point was clearly about the necessity of organizing. It is through working class organizing that politicians and the capitalist class are threatened into giving concessions, not through passively voting for sloganeers and other charlatans.
