Can't and indeed don't want to disagree with any of that my friend, perhaps excepting Trump is imo much worse than Biden. I can see how lying about being out and marching and being militant would piss you off. Has he clarified any of that by the way? I really don't know other than the headlines but you can be on a march but also not generally be out and about marching and being militant. I'll take it at face value but thought I'd put a scenario out there [to be shot down in flames:-) ]Firstly, everybody and their mates knows that 'MAGA' is not unique to this administration, so let's drop kick that out the window.
I point out that both, not vilifying one only, both are terrible people that did poorly in education and have lied their way to the top. I'm not sure why this doesn't bother people.
As a Black man, to hear someone LIE about being on civil rights marches irks me. No good can come from that. And then to build upon that a punishment for jailing an underclass for transgressions laid at their door by the previous government is unforgivable. Unless you're in my demographic, you can't understand why that cannot be dismissed.
Black people may vote, but they won't forget what happened there.
And, since, you're not going to understand something with the same parallel for you, it's easy to ignore. And that's just one aspect. An aspect that snowballs into mistrust for what politicians with agendas and that side with corporations over people really want.
You continue to play into the hands of neoliberalism.
Secondly, it's the top of the ticket that talk about 'job creators' needing less taxing, convincing the little people of such a lie and now everyone is on the case of the president when reality bites. Who, at the top of both parties, do not fall into the category of tax relief whilst telling the worker 'sorry, we can't give you enough of your money back to survive COVID!'. And this is whilst both parties agree to send public money to defence contractors to build bombs and blow that money up overseas.
This is why the phrase "not much difference" comes into play.
I ain't shouting down none of what you people have to say, but I will continue to point out my piece. I'm not part of this pathetic cabal and I'm glad.
I will always side with the little person. This election is about changing the figurehead only, but it's the problem underneath that won't get solved for years.
That's solved with fucking off neoliberalists, whether they are Democrat or Republican, to even the US ship.
The broader point and this is where I am seeking clarification is that "Fucking off the neo liberals" is a goal, an abstract notion, however laudable it may be it is just an idea or an ideal.
What I am interested in is the plan to achieve that goal. As you said it will take years but there has to be some path to take to achieve it, otherwise it's all just fine words and windy rhetoric. tm DrBlueBob.
