No I consider it a vanity ticket because they have no intention of really winning. You can't use the same strategy as every other 3rd party and expect people to not just assume that your party is exactly the same as every other grifter.
Then you gotta do institution building which, as far as I'm aware, PSL does not do.
I fully agree. And the best way to do that is to win seats so you can throw a wrench (or three) into the system and block any policies that would harm the working class. Then propagandize on those tangible achievements so that you can demonstrate to people that you can actually offer them something beyond just having the 'correct' opinions. All the while trying to build parallel institutions which can eventually take over the functions of the state you are trying to dismantle so people aren't afraid society will collapse if you take power, electorally or otherwise.
