Well, of course it shouldn't be the end goal. But given that a substantial portion of people in the US unironically believe universal healthcare will be worse than the four pests campaign it's kind of necessary to demonstrate that they've been misled. Then we could possibly go further on the reformist route if we succeed. Who knows, maybe it'll work differently on the imperial core, and work better than last time due to better organizing tools and knowing what happened last time. If it doesn't pan out, it should still radicalize some people. Worked on me.
Showing people that they're being lied to when people tell them that any improvement in working class conditions will cause the downfall of society is extremely useful or arguably outright necessary when a third to a half of the country is balls deep in right wing propaganda.
Yeah that's the usefulness of SocDems, anything further than that and they always crumble as they themselves don't want to overthrow capitalism. Look at how nice Bernie was to the democrats during the whole campaign and how it backfired.
I still think he could have done much better if he didn't tolerate the bullshit bad faith arguments against M4A. "But people like their private insurance!" Not they fucking don't, or maybe they have Stockholm syndrome. "How will we pay for it lol" with taxes dumbass, the plan literally costs less than current total healthcare spending with a generous amount of benefits even by the standards of a civilized country, and also accounting for increased consumption. No need to be nice when you can justifiably call the candidate a liar.
Exactly, but he didn't do that. He also should've quoted the Nelson Mandela "Thier enemies are not our enemies" speech when attacked on Cuba.
