I am so fed up with some of our American peers trying to posture their ideology online by being uppity with Bernie and AOC's work in the states.
They are actively engaging with large amounts of Americans all over inviting them to be more combative against billionaires, bloody American leftists should be utilising this moment to drive as many in those pockets even further left.
I am confident the supermajority of us completely disagree with most of Bernies foreign policies, from the illegal bombing of Yugoslavia to supporting the existence of Israel, we do not need to agree with them to utilise the moment they are creating to garner more support.
We are in unusual times and more people every day are beginning to realise the apparatus of their government is falsely presented as reliable, their checks and balances are clearly purchasable thanks to the way Elon has chosen to operate as of late. They also understand that their country, unless change comes around, is always 4 years away from being like this again, since the dems will. not. change. Most people know this new makeover the democrats are peddling around is just neoliberalism again.
Falling to puritan culture right now will get us nowhere and would be the ultimate shame, American leftists need to seriously begin siphoning off this movement Bernie and AOC are making to further left wing foundations because right now a healthy amount of people have finally realised that not just the fact that they cannot rely on the two party system, but that there are enough people discontent with both options to consent the existence of a third party.
This is a moment in history where the left need to grab hold of power and not let go, enough with this purity test garbage, there are bigger problems.
They're sheepdogs. They could use their platforms to support revolutionary parties and figures. Instead they've individualized the US-Zionist sins to Trump/Netanyahu and offered Democratic politics as the only solution for naive young people once more. They had their uses years ago, but there current role is apparent. Fuck them and the immense damage they continue to do to the revolutionary left.
You are right, they're conflating all the woes in the states to one man is like blaming Hitler singularly for the rise in fascism over in Germany, it goes against reality and if I've learned anything about Germany from the 50's to now that means they are trying to sell me something I don't want. Thank you for running it down to me.
I get that we gotta be tactful in the way we try to convince their sincerely-minded fans away from their grift, but at the end of the day in discussions among communists, they deserve nothing but venom.
