The path we're on is fundamentally unsustainable. Something will have to give. Free markets are not capable of addressing human needs and the collective crises we're facing, but regardless, you won't be getting any change in any direction except the steady decline into dysfunction and right-wing extremism that we've been getting so long as the two party system remains hegemonic.

You can punch left all you want, but again, the anti-genocide voters did not swing the election. Regardless, you people all have a completely upside-down conception of politics. Politicians must change to conform to the values that voters have, not the other way around, it's completely backwards to blame masses of people for holding onto valid moral convictions rather than blaming the politicians that failed to account for and accommodate those convictions. It's just bootlicking, I find it quite spineless and repulsive frankly, and it's very sad to me that anyone could have such a feckless way of thinking about politics.
