Can We Have An Open Honest Discussion About Progressives, Civil Rights, And Income Inequality ???

[woo me with science]

22. Your response is predictable and slimy.

You know nothing about my sex, gender, color, race, socioeconomic status, or ethnicity. But even more importantly, you remain utterly unable to argue the point on its merits and instead leap immediately to attempted personal smear, *even though* you know nothing about me.

That is the cynical corporate propaganda MO, and it's disgustingly familiar from the reliable, full-time corporate posters here. How sad that we live in a base propaganda state now....that this relentless disingenuousness and smear replaces honest discussion of issues and policy.

Any potential genuinely progressive candidate for president stands for the civil rights you pretend that your neoliberal corporate candidates represent. The Third Way claim to be the ones who especially care about them is a vicious lie, as any review of policy and history shows clearly.

Expanded equality is *never* the result of policies that concentrate power and wealth in a ruling elite and dismantle the very democratic institutions that minority groups rely upon for empowerment. And that is what neoliberal politicians do.

Just ask the women and children working in sweatshops and fleeing Honduras after Hillary's right-wing handiwork there. And just ask the citizens living in any US community blighted by neoliberal policies that expand police militarization and private prisons and attach a profit to human incarceration.

You are unable to justify what neoliberal policies ACTUALLY do to civil rights and the welfare of women, minorities, and other vulnerable or marginalized groups. And you can't back up your ABSURD attempt to imply that we must turn to Third Way candidates for consideration on issues of Civil Rights.

What utter garbage we are fed by the propaganda machines. We are fed obvious shit and told that it is a nutritious meal. More importantly, we are told that the ACTUAL nutritious meal available to us does not even exist.

It doesn't fly anymore.

The truth is that women and minorities can't afford more corporatism and are already dying because of it. The effects of *continued* corporate warfare on this nation and other nations will be a disaster for all human beings, but *especially* women and minorities.
