There’s not a whole hell of a lot that’s new here, but it’s important to remember that if you’re not recognizing the country we’ve known, colonialist and imperialist as it’s been over the years, you’re not alone.

    why weren’t we tearing down the government when Bush started bombing Iraqi kids or any of the many other times we did equally fucked up evil shit?

    Many of us were, but leftists have to fight both the system and liberals defending it. One of the biggest issues with liberals is they don’t want to tear down systems like white supremacy, they want to rework it into something they are comfortable with.

    progress takes time

    In the words of James Baldwin 'how much time do you want for your progress? ’

    Democrat incrementalism in reality has been incremental fascism.

    Liberals are dying to infighting bro

    Let the party die

      I completely disagree.

      You’re looking at a bad dog blaming the dog when it is the owners that are the problem. Voter turnout is abysmal, there is no better party coming if people don’t turn out to vote. Democrats would be decent if people voted, they don’t. This is why we’re here.
