The silence from Muslim leaders on the president’s 2024 reelection bid is speaking volumes as Biden continues to back Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza.
You have to understand that in this dynamic, both sides of the electoral spectrum play a role in moving us to the right.
The liberals can do certain things that the conservatives wouldn’t be able to get through, and the conservatives can do certain things that the liberals wouldn’t be able to do. But the leadership of those parties are captured by the capitalist class. They sell out and mislead their base. It’s all part of class warfare. And since I was born, the working class has been on the losing side, no matter whether social democrats or conservatives are in power.
Just as an example, our so-called center-left coalition just passed the most far-right deportation policy, and supported the most far-right EU immigration law (which fascists like Italy’s Meloni where very happy about). Why them and not Merkel? Because without the support of the Greens (and their support networks and associated media), no serious, organized and mainstream opposition to these far-right laws is possible. Previously, all these people would lobby and protest and make a stink in mainstream media about these sorts of dehumanizing laws. But the leadership of the Green party switched sides, and withdrew all institutional support, and now this stuff can get passed with barely a peep of protest.
