    I think that's too reductive tbh. It's a calculus the donor/political class might have made, but I think a great many liberal voters are just so deep in the kool-aid they forgot what water tastes like. They wouldn't know material conditions if it slapped them in the face - they have absolutely no conception or framework to make effective sense of their world. They honestly can't understand the world they themselves built.

        "B-b-but that's so radical!"

        MOTHER. FUCKER. YOU KNOW WHAT'S RADICAL? SLEEP WALKING INTO 10'S OF MILLIONS OF DEATHS AND HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF CLIMATE REFUGEES ALL SO THE HUMAN EQUIVALENT OF DRAGONS CAN HAVE THEIR LUST FOR BLOOD AND GOLD SATISFIED JUST A LITTLE LONGER.
