Lmfao, anyone still putting their hopes of abolishing capitalism in electoral politics (or the governments that result, and their actions), at the very least, hasn’t been paying any attention, and has very little to no understanding of how the systems at play work and interact.
Playing by their rules within their game (this includes not only electoral politics, but also shit like using housing as a commodity, however supposedly noble the intent) is never going to set anyone free from it.
Yeah, people don’t give up power willingly, they have to be forced. Especially when they think it’s something they rightfully own.
At the end of the day it’s just self interest in action.
You could do it non-violently… In the sense that the Civil Rights Movement or Indian Independence were non-violent.
Mostly.
And there was certainly violence directed against them.
And it only worked because there were enough people who very, very firmly believed in the cause… And there’s always, always the implication of or else.
