With voting billets you will acchieve nothing, that is for certain. the system is hijacked by some elites, the rules are tailored to serve their purpose, you cannot vote these elites out of office: and by that, democracy has become pointless.

So at least in their choice of tactis they maybe are oriented at the correct direction. Either infiltrate the system in avoidance of its rules that make certain that it will not change, or enforce a change from the outside by ignoring the system alltogether and forming an alternatrive structure in civil society that completely bypasses the system.

But my criticism one post above stands. Idealism that does not discmrinate in questions of rersponsibility and casue and effect, is no idealism, but naivety. And it necessarily causes new injustice by putting victim and perpetrator on the same level.
