    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupy_Wall_Street

    Occupy wallstreet was a cry from help from an entire generation and it that was a resounding failure, it achieved nothing, democrats co-opted it and led a nationally coordinated crackdown while the left just took it.

    If you’re seriously arguing that a dem president wouldn’t represent a significantly reduced existential risk then I don’t know what to say.

    Trump and the republicans only passed 1 bill before democrats took the house it was a 1 trillion dollar tax give away to the rich. This pales in comparison to what democrats have given Trump in the last 2 years, they've voted for his trade deals, expanded his military budget including giving him a fucking space force so we can now militarize space, passed his budgets including the wall, gave $4.5 trillion to the richest 0.1% with the cares act while screwing workers during a pandemic directly leading to the eviction crisis today and riots in the streets, and finally they funded his federal agents to snatch people off those same streets.

    Dem's can do this shit because a large part of the left still think that "they are on the same side" despite selling out working people at every turn and rubber stamping authoritarianism. Clinton and Obama have both gotten away with monstrous acts that are directly responsible for the situation today, which no republican would ever have be allow to. Dem's are not an opposition party, they are controlled opposition, both parties answer to the donor class, the only choice you get is if you want your authoritarian state with a rainbow flag or public displays of racism and hate.

    Yet here you still are arguing that they have any interest in "harm reduction" while their candidate argues against providing people healtcare during a pandemic, argues for fracking during what is clearly a climate apocalypse, and picks a cop as his VP while saying they should "shoot protestors in the legs" when the population is screaming for justice.

    This is not a real political party, It is pure political theater. nothing more.
