I’m done with my schtick that AOC is good or bad depending on the day.

She’s taking money from young progressives who want her to primary conservative dems and giving it directly to conservative dems like Conor Lamb... lmao.

She also gave money to CIA spook Abigail spanbergler who has publicly and privately talked shit about her repeatedly... lol

I didn’t realize her descent into being awful would be this quick. Wonder what her associated orgs are doing? Will justice dems just fizzle out or be wrapped into the establishment?

Yikes all around.

    Yeah idk dawg. I'll fully admit that I'm a bit more on the doomer side. I think even if you could get some type of electoral movement going, the way congress is designed, any drastic changes would take a hella long time. I still don't think many people understand the gravity of the climate situation at this point. We just don't have that much time.

    Chomsky was getting stick from the left earlier when he said something to the effect that capitalism will basically have to solve the issue of climate change. I don't think his point was that capitalism was the right ideology for this or anything - more that the upheaval of capitalism would take far longer than it would take to just come up with some cookie cutter solutions to at least make sure the market lives. There's a vested interest for these ghouls to keep people alive, IN THEORY. However, I'm not sure Chomsky understands how insatiable these greedy fucks are and that's always been his blind spot.
