There is no simple trend in the year of elections consistently to the right or to the left. However, the elections taking place around the world are all reflections of the growing capitalist crisis and the age of disorder.
Under capitalism, elections are fundamentally run in the interests of the ruling class.
The expectation isn’t that capitalism can be voted out of existence. Real change is made through the mass movement of the working class.
Ultimately, meaningful long-term change requires the overthrow of the capitalist system. This can only be accomplished through the activity of the masses. Since the rise of neoliberalism, the organization of the working class has been massively thrown back and hollowed out
The role of a revolutionary party is to navigate these challenges. To understand the complexities of the age of disorder, to engage in the day to day struggles of the working class and help develop a strategy to win real victories while pointing to the objective need to end capitalism in order to win fundamental change.
