The proposed bargain has always been “no, we won’t really fight corporations, but we’ll defend social progress!”
Well, they’re in charge, the rich are richer than ever, & now people are being charged with murder for miscarrying & it’s illegal to admit gay people are real.
liberals are the most insufferably ignorant people on the planet holy shit
The left was definitely not stronger, the appearance of the strong left was just disaffected liberals who felt guilty about Trump's rhetoric, now that Biden was in charge we can now go back to Brunch. The people we lost were never in the 'left'
Remember Lenin's words "Better Fewer, But Better".
I'm well aware that's because liberals were pushed into political activity. I'm saying that was better than... This.
I think it's not just the liberals though. I think the actual left is doing less as well. Having liberals telling them to stay calm and be patient all the time actively suppresses the real left. Some are trying of course, but there is less effort and less urgency occurring.
An enemy really has the power to electrify people, the left included.
smh Lenin telling me to join a less lib party, sigh
