And this is why we lefties will never achieve our goals. Too many focused on hyperbolic virtue signaling shit posts. And not enough focus on pragmatic policies or candidates to actually improve anything. More focused on tearing everything down and being useful tools to their enemies. Than building anything regardless of it being imperfect.

I agree. Biden sucks when it comes to his Israel policy. He's done too little too late and only after massive amounts of pressure at that. But realistically what other option do we have? Can someone show me a plausible way to elect someone other than Trump, RFK(lol) or Biden? And can anyone explain to me. Despite being the best of a bad bunch; what we have to gain right now by boosting his enemies in tearing him down.

I'd love to have seen a president Sanders. Single-payer healthcare. Large works of public housing being erected etc. I'm sure self righteous shit posting will achieve much of that. And that surely liberals don't have a valid point that we are facing fascism and the end of democracy. Despite many of their own politicians having enabled it. Failing to learn the lessons of 1930s Germany. I'm sure phyric infighting will end well. Yup, this is fine.
