    Revolution is the only solution. Even if USians managed to elect a really good reformist, the dominant class will not take lightly to that. We take the path of revolution not because we want it, but because it’s the path the bourgeoisie forces us to take, they will simply not allow you to meddle too much with their system without consequences, and will fight to keep it in place, just like the monarchies of the past fought these same bourgeoisie that violently took the power away from them to establish themselves as the new status quo.

    Also, the US is a constant threat to leftists abroad, just need to look at Chile on 09/11/1971, when democratically elected socialist Salvador Allende was killed in a US-backed military coup that installed neoliberal dictator Pinochet into power, which is further proof of the problems of electoralism, but on an international scale.

    You genuinely should read marxist theory. Comrade Cowbee have a great starting guide.
