The Democrats actively contribute to non-voting by being the only space for opposition, but then always campaigning on being “polite Republicans that fill out paperwork”

Harris/Biden ran on opposing all of these. The Dems can’t simultaneously fight against Bernie and progressives and then pretend at some point they were fore them because Bernie was in a Dem primary at one point and forced Dem candidates to find deceptive ways to deflect and lie like Harris saying “access to healthcare for all”

I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that until you denounce the ANC.

This is literally me with an ex-girlfriend.
It’s almost like you need an economic system to become a billionaire, control the labor of thousands of other people, and buy off other systems of accountability with your ill gained wealth. Weird, anyway, the form of society and how money/resources are allocated doesn’t matter at all, but somehow communism is still bad for some reason, even if it means more equality and lack of oligarchs.

The entire cold war was the US and sometimes their vassals like Saudi Arabia funding and supporting Islamism, as a counterweight to secular leftist forms of anti-colonialism, which they were actively suppressing, because of its incompatibility with socialism/communism.
Most easy and obvious examples is the Mujaheddin, aka proto-Al Qaeda and Taliban precursor. And Israel supporting Hamas over the PLO since the PLO was a secular organization that appealed to human rights.

Important facet of the Cold War, “say what you will about fascists, they will never go soft on Communists.”

The problem of the Democrats is that you can’t constantly run on things you have no intention of following through on, without having voters stop believing you eventually.
