  • I’m not even sure Democrats can take back power with a fractured right, and if the current form of the Democratic party did take power, it would do almost nothing to stave off the waxing fascism in this country.

    The current leadership of the Democratic party is as core to how and why fascism is ascendent in this country as the actual fascists. It would have been practically impossible for what has already happened to occur with out this incredibly compliant “opposition” party, all the while with an electorate trained on ABWD media and a meme of “strategic voting” which never seems to accomplish its strategic goals.

    With out a strong, vociferously clear opposing vision of what to be as a country; without accountability, not just for the past year, the past 10 years, the failures of the Obama bank bailouts, which set all of this into motion, there is basically no point in putting Democrats into power, because every unearned push back to BAU or failure to address the genuine pain people feel as a result of ** both** Democratic and Republican policies, these failed launches as a resituating normalcy only further entrench and embolden fascists.
