like i get it, the propaganda machine is strong, but after the draft for roe v wade being overturned i just don’t see what would compel someone to support the democrats and keep voting blue. they’ve had decades upon decades to codify it (they could’ve recently, they control everything right now and they also had a supermajority when obama was first elected) like they’ve done very, very little to show they actually care about women’s rights (and everyone’s really) it’s insane. even now, biden could pack the courts or biden could end the filibuster so they could codify it now and do some jurisdiction stripping so the supreme court can’t rule it unconstitutional. and idk how the fact they aren’t isn’t disillusioning for the average democrat voter, it seems the message they’re taking away is that this is trump’s fault for appointing that one judge and they need to :vote: harder.
it’s mind boggling but it’s also just so incredibly sad, idk what it will take to show them that these people don’t care about them
Honestly it feels like they are just desperately trying to keep the Republicans on board the money gift that is America. Luke they don't give a shit about anything else, they just want too keep the exploitation train rolling, but the Republicans keep pushing us toward an actual constitutional crisis of one sort or another.
Honestly wondering if this will eventually lead to another crisis in which capital will be forced to purge itself of it's fascist christian element by force to preserve the status quo for the capitalist establishment. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking by me and any justice will have to be earned by the worker rightfully usurping of this nation.
Honestly I don't know, that basically what the civil war was. So maybe we will see it happen again if the hogs overturn the apple cart too much, American capital is too dependent on non white evangelicals to go back into that box.
If that time ever comes a purge of the old guard (and similar styled) democrats would need to occur very swiftly for any type of leftist inroads to be established in a successive government that would arise from such instability (i.e. a "we are what remains of legitimate political power besides the raving racists so yes you will let us into the power structures so this shit don't burn to Hell and back").
Capitalism will never produce a stable system. Capitalists are always trying to exert further control out of their own self-interest. It's absolutely amazing that they have that little self control. People like FDR then have to step in (with the popular support of millions of workers lol) to be their caretakers.
