(3,049 posts)OK, if a person is just getting out of high school and only now coming to the realization that the rich have been exploiting this count since -- well since forever, welcome aboard. But if a person is an adult who has ostensibly living in the real world, for a decade or two, it is way past time to wake the fuck up.
We don't need "course corrections." We don't need a "return to normal". We don't need "solutions ar the margins".
We need to be thinking in revolutionary terms. And let's give the MAGA people some credit. They aren't very good at processing information to arrive at clear understandings and appropriate solutions, but dammit, they DO understand this system is really fucked up and we are all in big trouble if we can't overthrow this class of oligarchs
We actually have a lot more in common with the MAGA people than we do with the "moderates" and "Institutionalists" who have enabled this fascist machine to establish itself over the past 45 years. Talarico, Platner, AOC are talking to these people in terms they can understand. Trump is losing this crown. We need to take this opportunity to educate them and bring them to our side. I am not talking about the Confederate flag-waving racists and gun-totin' nut cases. They are lost causes. But there are many who have felt an affinity with MAGA because they sense just how fucked up the system is and nobody else was acknowledging that.
Eat the Rich.
