Seems kind of spurious to call lobbying sabotage as if the politicians being lobbied are machines and not human beings doing what they've been elected to do as nominally bourgeois party members.

Seems weird to assert politicians do anything they were elected to do. They're far more worried about what the donor class wants.

Politicians from bourgeois parties are going to serve bourgeois interests. Nobody should expect anything different from them.
