The (correct) leftist message is that voting is the bare minimum someone can do and that we should do more (like protest, join community organizations, and sure even revolt) but the takeaway isn’t “don’t vote” it’s “don’t just vote.”

You can go all sovcit and pretend the state doesn’t matter just because you are anti-state (a valid position to have) but you’re still going to experience state violence whether or not you think you should.
