  • I mean absolutely no offence in this response, but if I might articulate myself further. The enemy of progress and the cause of this most egregious regression in The United States is division. Holding idealised standards of how political parties should be in the current political climate, is disingenuous virtue signalling and disregards how politics work(s)ed in America with AIPAC, corporate lobbying and a two party system of First Past The Post elections. I am not telling you you’re wrong, quite the opposite. I agree with you. I am instead asking you to contextualise your (valid) outrage into the broader scope of American politics. If we do not defeat the orange menace, there will never be any progressives holding office, ever. You are right to want further change, but right now our division only serves the ruling class. The fact is, at this moment in history, you cannot get elected to any federal office of the United States without the support AIPAC. It is wrong, it is unjust, it serves the purpose of warmongers, I understand. As does the act of poor Americans purchasing cheap clothes imported from China. Yet, there is no choice for the poor who rely on them to clothe themselves and their children. I see you comment a lot and I am glad to see that, because you obviously care. I recognise your frustrations with Centrist Democrats. Of course they’re impotent, they themselves are multimillionaires, just trying to hold on to their investments and not have their families disappeared. Spineless. Democrats are always targeted for their failings, both by republicans and from within the party and support is often split because of it. While republicans disregard all criticism and stay united through their hatred and obfuscation of the truth. They live with this absurd cognitive dissonance and they still won, because they are united. You can be right about everything, without also serving the purposes of our enemy. If they prevail, when they finally crush every last one of us. It will be because there was no united opposition. It does not matter how correct you are today my friend, being right won’t matter. “I told you so” means nothing in Hell.
