The owner has set up this system where he says you get to choose the boss. Even if you do, at best you get to choose who interprets the owners orders. Spending all your time fighting for one boss or the other or against specifically the boss is the wrong thing to do. The correct thing to do is to fight to get rid of the owner and this system, to create a new system that is truly democratic, that will listen to the workers.
That is certainly not what I am advocating for when I say go vote for who you want to fight against.
Voting does not prevent you from building dual power.
And that has material consequences. To ignore that is to limit who you are able to work with.
So you're saying if we vote for party1, all party2 members will magically disappear and we don't have to fight them anymore?
Am I to take your question in good faith? Because I really don't understand how you made this leap from what I said.
You said "Vote for who you want to fight against", which may make sense in a videogame, but not irl, so I pointed out the contradiction.
I see. I should have said "vote for where you want to fight; in a concentration camp or in the streets". I meant it reflects the quality of the fight, not that the fight goes away.
You can't vote for where you want to fight.
"Nuh uh". Good point!
