That’s a whole lot of strawmanning and sealioning. I don’t want to engage with a bad faith user arguing against making a democracy fairer. If your party cannot reach past 5% of the threshold, it’s a campaigning issue not a democracy issue. I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re a tankie attempting to hijack political conversation to serve your self serving interests.
Only posting this to make the few people who come across this aware that this mod banned me for challenging their claim to know what’s best for minority groups they are not a part of (for democracy, you see).
OP, you straight up lied about enslaved people to argue that working within the state should never be questioned by oppressed peoples. Inadvertently, you have demonstrated that these arguments are fundamentally racist in how they appropriate the resistance and activism of minority groups to misremember history as a series of struggles within a state rather than against it. That narrative is certainly appealing to privileged groups who do not have to risk any more than the mild effort it takes to say the right thing at a safe time.
Also, “tankie” in reference to my argument for anarchic tactics of mutual aid and direct action is full mask-off on your politics (you couldn’t even fathom that I was discussing politics outside of parties). You’re a self-interested liberal who would gladly trample over groups lower in the hierarchy than you if that meant that you get what you want. You tried to silence one right now with the middling power you have when they said something you didn’t like and went on to claim they’re just a morally bad person for doing so.

Embarrassing display, even in private.
Double voting yourself is proving the case that you’re a tankie. You don’t care about democracy at all but to force your way no matter what.
