Democrats are symbolically liberal and operationally conservative.

"vote blue no matter who"

Can we prefigure socialism within capitalism and while it is still the dominant system? I think we can.

If the definition of "progressive" includes the effort to find a better capitalism... Is Trump a progressive?

I have to wonder how deeply wounded the Democratic Party is. These past 8 years have not been good for them. They have lost to Trump TWICE... OMG 🙀 And the one guy they put in the oval office ended up being a bowl of pudding. That has got to hurt. I wonder if they're doing some soul searching?

Liberals were given ample opportunity to make the case for liberalism. They failed. Liberals should now allow others to make the political case against fascism by getting out of the way.

When Democrats say they want a big tent party... You have to ask yourself... WHO OWNS THE TENT?

Halfway through "Abundance" by Klein & Thompson. They want a far stronger government that doesn't listen to the people. This is NOT the way.

US Gov Terrorism

Back in the mid 1900s the US government deported anyone who were either anarchist or communist or socialist. They were particularly interested in Anarchists. It’s not the first time this country has targeted ppl over their beliefs for deportation. Emma Goldman www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Politics is a lot like pro wrestling. The contenders talk a big game. They hate each other! They're going to rip each other's heads off! Then they get in the ring and fight.
