Indeed, just checking the vote count, it makes me sick. But remember, never blame the people you wish to liberate from the ills you perceive in society. For there's something higher than the people alone that makes them believe in their false consciousness. For if a system only shows you one thing, which necessarily can be a multiplicity but still, in life, then you will repeat its programming when you see anything defying the logic of the system. The Will of Capital wishes not for the underside to be exposed, thus people remain ignorant of such avenues. This in the end produces a false consciousness that plagues the worker, and eventually even the ruling class as they start to believe into it.
This is where we, Marxists, Anarchists and the such, step in and showcase ourselves. But not by spouting ideology, but with work and education. We give them something to hope to and to make them see an alternative to their condemned lives. If we showcase ourselves but stay humble, people will be provoked and intrigued. Then they will ask for something defies their understanding but harms not their sense of self negatively, then we can start bringing them to us.
