Trump making the capitalist hellhole worse, does not make the capitalist hellhole acceptable. No matter if the presidents name was Trump, Biden, Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush or Reagan.
An economy that cannot provide access to basic healthcare and education for its citzens is a failed economy, no matter how high the price tags of stocks traded by coked up psychopaths are.
If Biden or Harris were president now live would be better for millions, perhaps even billions, of people on this planet.
Both sidesing this it lazy and ineffective.
Going for the "lesser of two evils" over the past 40 years at least is what brought us to Trumps presidency. In particular Biden and Harris brought us to his second presidency, embracing the support of Dick Cheney, which is a Bush era war criminal Republican foreign invader mass murderer.
Yes i both side this. The Democrats in their current shape are a big part of the problem and they oppose getting towards a solution. Because a solution would be against the US oligarchy and the DNC is equally representing that oligarchies interests. Just the flavor of oligarchs is different between the two parties.
You know, I'll agree with your first paragraph. But it's not only the last 40 years, it's even longer. Is there a realistic alternative? I don't see one.
If the real left (not the democrats) in the us wants to be in power I don't see an alternative to violence. And if violence is chosen I have my doubts that the left would win. It's a lose lose situation. The US is a shit hole that won't get better in the next decades or centuries. Maybe hope for a short respite like the 90s.
