    It’s wonderful to have that knowledge, and agree with your characterization of the (racist, genocidal, slave-owning) founders.

    The current mess does not need discussions of what socialism or communism or whatever flava of “left” the Lemmygentsia believe to be the One True Way. The current mess needs a fired-up national party to get in meeting rooms and Make Things Happen.

    As it stands, the Democratic party is the only, and best, vehicle for that. So calling Democrats “liberal” as a slur or a dismissal is not only a waste of time, it’s actively supporting the fascism that is roaring ahead.

    The contempt of, ignorance of, and utter lack of offering in any other respect regarding Democrats is a waste of time, countereffective, and pretentious. Fascinating and instructive though the core ideas may be.
