You MUST make solutions that appeal to enough people to have a coalition. Refusal to negotiate on anything, and taking an all-or-nothing approach is what will fuck us all.
Republicans have been strategic; it's taken them nearly 40 years of work, but they've managed to throw out Roe v. Wade. They took a lot of small nibbles over time, fought the battle on a lot of fronts, and by dog, they eventually won. They're also fighting this on public education, religion, and a hundred other fronts, and because they're able to largely form working coalitions, they're winning. (This latest House, with the Freedom Caucus, has been an exception rather than the rule.) The left needs to fucking learn this lesson, instead of each faction not giving a goddamned inch and fighting to the bitter end over everything. Fracturing and circular firing squads aren't helping the left, they only help the right.
Lol ur so wrong and mad. Good solutions appeal to people when implemented- If the rich lived in fear, or better yet were eliminated -life WOULD be better for the rest of us. You sound like a steamroller pacifist.
History is replete with examples of individuals who believed they could create a utopia by killing enough people. Of them, you're not the most enlightened, just the latest.
Billionaires shouldn't exist. They profit off death. Are you getting paid to argue for their lives?
I think your primary motivation is violence, not progress. I don't need to be a shill to recognize that.
No, thats the billionaires you're thinking of again. And the conditions which uphold your likely quite cozy, insulated life and opinions.
