Summary
Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez condemned Donald Trump and Elon Musk at a packed Arizona rally, accusing them of harming working-class Americans and promoting oligarchy.
Sanders denounced corporate CEOs as “major criminals” exploiting workers, while Ocasio-Cortez called for stronger Democratic leadership.
Rallygoers urged Ocasio-Cortez to challenge Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer after he supported a Republican funding bill.
The rally, part of Sanders’ “Stop Oligarchy” tour, follows criticism of the Democratic Party’s weak response to Trump’s agenda and features further events in Colorado and Arizona.
Some did say that. You can likely count the number on your hands. But one of the very first actions the newly formed U.S. government took was putting down a rebellion. They were not supporters of revolution, they were supporters of their own personal interest.
Because there are just as many people today who would be willing to rise up blindly in defense of their oligarchs, just as they were willing to fight for their oligarchs profit margins back then.
Because leftist groups in the U.S. have none. We’ve been desperate for funding for decades now. All media outlets are suppressing us. You cannot expect the same level of performance as when the oligarchs were on our side.
The ones who deliberately use propoganda to incite poor people to fight for their profits are. Hell the French aristocracy weren’t even helping the Americans for good reasons, they were just happy to use them as a warfront to weaken their real enemy in the British.
It seems like you fundamentally misunderstand the history and current situation in the United States, and are trying to criticize us without any context.
A state would never support a rebellion though…. Just because they understand revolution doesn’t mean they allow it under law. That’s not how it works. If you rebel you’re an enemy of the state until you over throw it.
Everyone is looking out for their own interests.
A lot of what you say is debatable and feels like mental gymnastics to avoid what you need to do. Ultimately it doesn’t matter. I don’t need to convince you, pain and suffering will.
