This statement comes off pretty aggressive and counterproductive.
Although we should not make illusions that parlemantary democracy is going to serve us, we should support voices that want to bring an intersectional analysis of society into the main stream political discourse. Of course Bij1 is not going to lead the revolution, but they have activist roots and they have accomplished a lot already trying to expand that overton window. We shouldn't adamantly support any political party, but we can definitely use their reach and means to our collective benefit. Political apathy and virtue-policing your comrades will only get you clout.
If you're not willing to perform tactical unity while our message is carried by so few, we will never make progress.
