    The Republicans built up to the atrocious system we are in incrementally. Over decades and decades. Western society is a huge paddle-steamer chugging right faster and faster.

    Our options are to increase the rightward acceleration or decrease it. It’s going to be a long time before that leftward acceleration becomes actual leftward velocity. I’m sorry it is like this. I wish it wasn’t.

      dnc did it to themselves in 2016 when they chose lobbyists over voters. this is not about right or left. dnc just doesn’t cares about its voter base.

      biden and harris are carrier politicians who do what lobbyists pay them to do. dnc would have won 2016 if they had even done a fair primaries. they will sweep this election if it was an actual progressive candidate like aoc or bernie. Obama showed it twice.

      we are fucked like the Palestinians irrespective of who wins this election
