    Honestly dog, this is exactly the right question. I get it. Shoutout to you for asking it. Truly.

    From the liberal perspective, this is exactly how it goes. “I voted against fascism, yet fascism still festers. What gives?”

    The liberal framework pushes the idea that electoralism is the be all end all form of political participation, but leftists refute this. Leftists say that you have a plethora of other tools at your disposal to express yourself politically: buy a gun, do mutual aid, join an organization, read theory, participate in local politics, etc…

    If your question is earnest, I’d encourage you to read some Lenin.
