Voting in bourgeois democracy is a way of channeling political activity into an unproductive avenue. It doesn't follow that voting is required for political involvement. And also your original claim was that it was the bare minimum, it isnt. It is below the bare minimum. You could say "it is a step toward the bare minimum" and I'd disagree but that would be more accurate to what I believe you're trying to convey.

So what are you doing to build power and raise class conciousness then? How are you rising to the bare of bare minimum?

Literally making radical unions as part of a socialist organization and doing serious mutual aid work. Providing logistical support to protestors where protesting=/=marching

More power to you! I'll keep making memes advocating for class conciousness and political engagement.
