Yawn. I’ve been arrested opposing the GOP, you haven’t. I’ve been tear gassed, you haven’t. Etc, etc.

You don’t reduce any harm supporting the Democratic Party. Trust me - because unlike you, I spent years actually volunteering and helping the Democratic party. You haven’t, you just like to pretend you’re doing something online. Just like your apparent Ukraine chickenhawkery - always easy to support a war when it’s some other poor bastard being conscripted, I guess?

Keep daydreaming, it’s apparently all you’re good for.

Oh, so you stupidly just support the US Democratic party for sport?

Seek help.

I left the US already - because it was obvious your ilk couldn’t deal with the GOP. I hate that I was right, but so it is.

It’s worked out pretty ok for me. For the rest of the US, not good.

Been using this for years. Best thing is to get your own domain, that way if you later switch providers, you keep your email.

no, it’s not. That would make fascism left wing, it is not.

Highly recommend the Revolutions podcast on this subject.

Yes, the current relations to capitalism actually were fixed in 1848, not 1789.

The split between the bourgeoise and the proletarian is exactly what happened in 1848 - they were united in the French Revolution, then as the bourg took power, they made sure to stop the revolutions.

hey, how’d voting “not Trump” work out for you in 2020?

Liberals seem to have the memories of goldfish, which is how the Democratic party is able to keep moving steadily to the right.

So why vote blue?

It literally is not.

What makes the third viable is voting for it. But that aside, making the Democrats lose with a clear auditable trail of votes to the left makes it clear they have to move left (and take the third party’s positions) or be destroyed. This is how the party system in the US has always worked, from the Whigs to the FDR coalition. The modern GOP almost did this, but was so sidelined by the FDR coalition and failures of Nixon that their right wing didn’t even have to leave under Reagan to take over.

Position sensors exist - I had a Roland organ module years ago that had what they called a DBeam one. Basically a position based effect pedal.
