De-emphasizing electoralism is a classic left-wing position, not everyone who shuns voting is a right-wing troll. I’m not saying I agree with this but just because you don’t agree doesn’t mean they are right wing.

This.
Taking the stance that voting alone isn’t enough and that we need direct action like the Labor, Civil Rights, and Women’s Suffrage movements to accomplish change isn’t the Right side of the aisle.
The folks who insist that electoralism will save us are misguided.
That said, as someone who votes down ballot anyways I’m going to vote for the farthest left candidate that can win. I can’t find a compelling reason not to vote as a leftist. Then again, I can do it absentee in my state and my polling place doesn’t have huge lines.
