I was the last one to incite a debate about Hasan on this site, and this was the comment that reframed my thinking positively.

Are you an accelerationist? If so that's fine but I really don't see what the "left" is at a statewide or national level in America. Should we all vote PSL even when they're polling at 1%? I'm not going to say that there's not a time and place to do this (there is), but if you're an electoralist or interested in something other than accelerationism then sometimes voting for a dem (who as a candidate refuses to support genocide or war and supports m4a) can ever so slightly remove the boot of fascism from ppl to help with organizing.

I think it's interesting you ignore the real material gains of zohran (I mentioned this in a diff post, sorry I didn't mention it here earlier). Would a mayor that didn't bother to get their constituent freed from gestapo custody be better for "the left"? Seriously interested in what you think about this.
