No, it’s not parties that are entrenched, it’s laziness and complacency. America could have a viable third party, the status quo could be shaken. But it would require a bit more drastic measures than just canvassing and making YouTube videos. It would require an election boycott campaign to shake the legitimacy of your democracy (and with two parties that serve the same corporate master, just how legitimate is it in the first place?), it would entail a period of instability with perhaps something even worse than Trump emerging for a while…

But by and large, Americans are comfortable. Despite the economic downturns, despite the drug zombies in the streets, most Americans are not ready for the hardcore sacrifices that are necessary to drastically change a political system.

So you trudge along, always choosing between two piles of shit, carefully weighing which pile is a bit smaller and stinks just a bit less. And you say, this is democracy in action!

Luckily for Americans, Biden is the scourge of corporate America…

You know it must be great being the Left. A totally external locus of control. It’s the Tories! It’s the bigots! It’s the billionaires!

I’ll digress a bit here and give you an example. In my country there’s an organisation called Marks21. They say they are a “movement to build a worker’s party.” They’ve existed for more than 20 years now. No worker’s party in sight. But what do they occupy their time with? Endless discussions on gender. And before you accuse me of bashing the woke, this organisation is actually very transphobic.

What I am saying, and you’re wilfully ignoring, is that the left is also to blame here. Not just the Tories. Not just the billionaires.

The left has abandoned common people instead focusing on academia and middle class liberals cosplaying as radicals. This left would rather pal around with woke corporations while denouncing normal people over fringe and esoteric issues like neopronouns.

Maybe the left should care more about starving children and less about what JK Rowling posts on Twitter.

Maybe the left should be building a broad coalition with everyone who’s fed up of there being starving children instead of chastising and cancelling normal working class people for not getting the latest most esoteric gender discourse.

No. Genders are way more important than children.

Who said anything about the Tory government? You really think you have a million hungry children because of the Tories? You’re politically illiterate then.

Million children hungry: I sleep.

Wrong pronouns used to Twitter: straight to jail!

The neoliberal establishment that “the Left” wholeheartedly supports.

You’re not black.
