I'm not suggesting that we can vote our way to socialism. I'm pointing out that extreme cynicism about politics is reactionary ("there is no society", "I'm from the government and I'm here to help", and all that) and not accurate.
To get people on our side we have to describe the world as it actually is (accurate) and show a path to something better (not reactionary).
