If we could stop arguing about literally everything else, no matter how important you think the issue is, we could really, really spread this message and have it stick across America broadly. At least the idea that we deserve more back for the amount of money we have cut from our work and lives to pay for the government, and the obscenely wealthy are the real enemies.

I encourage Lemmy readers who aren’t completely stuck up their own ass, to make THIS the driving message we take into the next decade and beyond, because it will take that long to shift this from an identity/ideology war back to the class war it really should be. If we can drive even SOME of the money out of politics and start demanding things like union protections, fair wages and guaranteed benefits, we could restore a lot of American might and start pushing the needle left again.

We don’t get to the finish line without circling the track, no matter how tiring it is. Nobody is coming. No charismatic leader is going to appear and suddenly lead everyone in a revolution and change everything overnight. We HAVE to stop feeling entitled to the perfect outcome, we have to work for that.
