  • I don’t understand that. What did Democrats do or say to make you claim they’re “revolving around playing victim and identity politics”? Could you give some examples of that behavior?

    I mean, maybe I am too far left or just too European, but from my POV it clearly looks as if it’s the rightwingers who are doing their part of identity politics by fighting the “woke” people vigorously.

    While Democrats just want minorities and disadvantaged groups to enjoy the same rights as everybody else. Which I would appreciate.


  • That’s kind of true from a moral viewpoint. But those are of no good because they don’t change anything.

    The Democratic Party is a spectrum from social democratic to pretty conservative politicians, no fascists.

    I think Bernie Sanders is quite on the left even by European standards. But he’s not a communist.

    If you want more left politics vote progressive Democrats in every election, especially those local and regional ones. That’s the way to get a left party in the USA. And that will make a more left democratic candidate for president possible and eventually some left governers and a left President.


  • „The climate crisis is here already.“

    No. A crisis is a temporary event that you enter and exit, strengthened by many lessons learned and challenges overcome, if you’re lucky.

    The climate catastrophe, on the other hand, will inexorably and irreversibly turn our world upside down forever, will kill a vast amount of people and destroy trillions of material value.

    The only question is whether we will manage to contain it to an extent that our civilization is not being destroyed to the ground. Every day we go on ignoring this fact is rising the risk of fucking this up completely.
