Biden is worse than Obama by almost every standard (either lib shit like "coolness" or actual policy shit and what they believe), has promised to do much, much less, has much bigger problems to solve, and has less power in government to do any of it with. Its gonna be a blood bath
At the same time though, I don't think people believe in Biden the way they believed in Obama. We have a head start. We have to try to use this situation (and every situation) to our advantage.
The propaganda around Biden is gonna be strong. He won't be seen in public for months at a time, but their deepfake him on John Wick for some reason.
I agreed with most of it, but I think ultimately if the squad and Bernie are not willing to go around the country and tell people face to face that Biden and his ideology are responsible for all this suffering then the Republicans who will do that will control the backlash. The half in half out approach is killing us.
They do that and they lose all credibility since they campaigned for him
Isn't this the Tulsi Gambit? Go around bashing your own party and hope the base Dem voter hates the Dems as much as you do?
Alternatively, you can do the Steve Bullock dance and tell people that Democrats aren't Republican enough.
There are so many Democrats who attack the party from the right that you quickly get called a Republican if you criticize the party at all.
I think it wouldn't be what Tulsi was doing as much as establishing the left as a distinct force and creating a counter narrative in the wide swaths of the country the left currently has no presence outside of election season.
In the absence of that Biden will shit the bed for 4 years and the republicans will simply say the left is the more extreme version of Biden. Nobody will care that some twitter accounts with hammers and sickles really hate Biden or something, if the left wants to be seen as opposition it has to be the people the left actually put in office.
Tbh though I preferred Trump to win purely on chaos and incompetence grounds:
Particularly after news of deep state officials have been consistently lying to Trump about the levels of troops in Syria in order that Trump can't withdraw them
While Kamala has promised to "restore relations with the Syrian opposition" (read: finance jihadis head choppers in Syria at another attempt to impose US global hegemon on Syria)
Though, obviously, Biden will be a 100x worse war criminal than Trump the chaos in the US state of having 70 million trumpers who believe the election was stolen from them is still good grounds for chaos and paralyses in the US state (as unfortunately right wingers are only threat to US state right now)
Get ready for all the people who said "We should elect Biden and then push him left" to immediately turn around and say such demonstrations are too aggressive and how this isn't the way and what about civility. Then the cops will tear gas them and take out a few eyeballs while the libs wring their hands about how they're not at all like those antifa and it had to be done, sorry!!
Sunrise movement may already have ran ahead of the right, for what it's worth
Caitlin Johnstone 's "about" page reads like a 2005 Ren Faire blogspot bio. Other than that, she's completely right.
...What do they think "the left" has been doing since the called win?
