    They aren’t running for a revolution, if they were, they wouldn’t be on the ballot for an election.

    It’s all performative nonsense.

      I’ll just copy and paste my earlier explanation, hope it makes sense for you this time:

      Participation in bourgeois elections is to delegitimize the system (such as pointing out Dem/Rep collusion to kick them off the balot in Georgia), and advertise their platform.

      Marxists believe revolution is necessary and electoralism is a sham.

        If they want a revolution, they would revolt.

        They aren’t. They’re running, poorly, in an election, where they will be 100% ineffectual and their message, if it’s heard at all, completely forgotten.
