Keep chasing that center as your country descends into fascism. It's easier than thinking for yourself

Why do liberals have to get in the way and make enemies of us? We'll have to go through you all then.

Leftism isn't a stranger to being attacked on all sides and being pushed to the margins, but we're still here generation after generation even as the most rich and powerful nations organize their militaries and media against us.

Organized protest actions are revolutionary. A general strike would do more than your last 10 votes. Violence should not be the first escalation

there's nothing neo about this, let's not even give them the credit of originality. This is exactly what happened 100 years ago.

If only the consequences only applied to the people causing the issue. We're all in the blast radius. I hope I live long enough to see hope returning. So far it's just been a constant decline.

Organize. Sabotage. General strike. Protest. Political action isn't one day every four years.

I'm sick of private ownership and private decision making about every fucking single aspect of human life from who gets housed to who gets fed to our very culture.

Americans "hate" dictatorships but allow the economy to be run by a bunch of Lords.

Socialism is the democratization of the economy. Socialism puts the human and the worker and the people most impacted by these economic decisions at the helm.

But no, democracy in the economy wouldn't be free. We need to slave away for fascist dictators.

they're too busy sanewashing totally normal ideas like seperating children from parents, tariffs on every import, and mass deportation. Totally rational positions squarely in the overton window.

What will they say about the concentration camps those immigrants are rounded up into? What will they say about the military being deployed to round up residents? I guess we'll find out.

Taxing billionaires though, how radical

They're both working for capitalists. Democrats bank on getting the support of capitalists that have morals. Unfortunately most capitalists, and the wealthiest capitalists, don't. When both parties appeal to the same group but one gives them more of what they want unsurprisingly that's the one that wins.

The working class is invisible because the working class is not organized.

waiting for a chance to elect the least shitty candidate every 4 years is how you got into this mess.

If we don't organize and start taking direct action then nothing will change.

People need to join organizations in their community or labor unions and begin to directly sabotage the conservative agenda. General strikes should be something that the American left are actively planning right now.

Don't sit down, stand up

The Democrats have been spoiling elections plenty on their own
