    Here's your real unpopular opinion: I hope Biden wins because I think we Reagan him and just use him as a puppet, but I am under no illusions that this will not make things better for the world outside of the imperial core, but I don't think anything we can do right now, Trump or Biden, would fix that. Bernie's laughable suggestion to cut 10% of the Pentagon budget was nonetheless slightly encouraging.

      I've yet to hear a convincing argument for why he would be more swayed by us than by the entrenched power brokers who he's already familiar with. Biden is a creature of establishments, and we're not establishment.

        At this point? Pudding brain plus fear of losing the election plus Bernie and him being tight for some god awful reason.

        I still believe we can hollow out the corpse of the DNC and make it our own. This is in tandem with non-electoral political action.
