For decades, we have been in the streets in defense of the Palestinian people, and will continue to fight until the total liberation of Palestine!

    So you don’t want to improve people’s lives by your admission and would rather let things get worse because they don’t magically make everything better completely.

    Jesus christ, I don’t think I’d want the revolution to succeed if you don’t want to improve people’s lives while working to make things better long term.

      No, I would rather get the firehose out and start putting the fires out, rather than acting like the bucket is the best we can do. I already said, developing high speed rail, free healthcare and education, massively expanded public housing, all of that is extremely achievable. Other countries, even developing ones, manage to do it. You have this defeatist mentality that the Democrats are somehow trying their best but just entirely inept, when in reality they serve their donors alone.

      All improvements are gradual, the Dems are doing less than the bare minimum and are expecting applause for it. Cuba has better LGBT legislation than the US does, there’s no excuse.

        So all improvements are gradual, but also I won’t vote for gradual change, but also the Dems should be doing more while having to fight for any reform in the split government. Got it.

          Dems aren’t gradual change but virtue signalling, they serve their donors. There’s a difference between gradual change and kabuki theatre.

              Do you have any actual points other than displaying a lack of knowledge surrounding world history?

                Do you have any other points besides not wanting to assist in harm reduction?

                Thats all this amounts to if we aren’t trying to fix the system and going for a revolution, so I still see zero reason to not simply pick the least damaging options until that happens.

                  You’re not doing harm reduction, you’re tying your hands withiut doing anything. The Dems are still damaging.

                    Are the Dems exactly as damaging as Republicans? There’s not a shred of difference between the two at all? You can’t think of anything that makes the Dems better? OK lol
