Voting while living in third world country is literally a waste of paper.
In peripheral nations outside the core is the only time where voting actually could lead to improvements, since there are segments of the national bourgeois who stand to gain from de-colonizing, so it’s possible to form a short-term coalition with them. In the core nations is where voting is pointless. The only nations to ever vote in socialism via the ballot box have been “third world” countries.
Isn’t the position of countries in the 3 worlds theory more about how they fit into the system of imperialism than about wellbeing of their citizens?
