    It doesn’t. We need results. Not morally hand wringing. We can do that after we get back the culture

      For all actual leftists, please read materialism & empirio-criticism, Lenin talks about the “action above all else” people like that person above me.

      Driving against a wall is also a movement forward, just not one into a productive direction.

      Handwaving fascist tattoos is ceding too much in my opinion. This should be a moment where liberals have some self awareness and grapple with the use of state power to service the whims of capital, but history doesn’t provide a hopeful forecast in that regard.

        Sure. Keep telling yourself whatever you need to justify all these losses every day. The left is cooked. There’s no coming back from this. It’s not the fault of the billionaires or the Trump’s or Nazis. It’s the fault of the left for giving it all up and being so unappealing that those assholes could grow and capture the people the left alienated
