I don’t think EelBolshevikism was saying “you must not vote”. You can criticise the idea of voting as effectively pointless, and still vote PSL for the tiniest mind bogglingly little almost-nothing it will achieve.
I do think it’s important not to concede to any argument that voting in the current system is important in any meaningful way.
We should not compromise the validity of our arguments with hyperbole. We should state what is correct and not exceed those bounds for the sake of rhetorical effect.
