Fucking hate the Imperialist Democratic Party, and think there's basically no chance they'll actually pass meaningful student debt relief under Biden.
But a universal vanquishing of the first $50,000 held in student debt by graduates will meaningfully improve the conditions of tens of millions of Americans; for both graduates, and those who did never attended a post-secondary institution alike.
57% of Americans support "forgiving up to $50,000 in student loans for individuals who live in households that make less than $250,000 a year", including a majority of those who never attended a College.
This just seems rich considering Chapo often mocked liberals who were incapable of admitting that Trump can do good things at times, and now they may fall into the same trap of opposing on instinct everything coming from the Biden camp.
Actually people should keep suffering, because stopping it with the stroke of a pen would alienate the working class
I think the broader critique he was trying to make is that the Democrats would do nothing else, lose support in some constituencies, then blame progressive policies and move to the right. But yeah, this is a dumb take. If for no other reason that you shouldn't use short term political tactics as a reason not to do something that will help a ton of people and is likely widely popular anyway.
