    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.
