(10,622 posts)for the party, they have convinced me that it is nothing more than a sporting event, what is right be damned.
If that is true, all that is left is to pick a team and enjoy the ride towards our inevitable fascism.
I can't do it alone, the party does not care about Democratic principles anymore, all that is left is the game of getting more such unprincipled Democrats elected, that is our bread and our circus.
Alone, I can not change that and if I try to remind them of our principles I will be banned for opposing "our side", and will be called a Republican.
If there is no hope for anything I believe in, it is really just a game after all, I may as well enjoy the circus.
I am getting old, my party is no longer in existence, what else is left but to join the big joke that is the eternal struggle for the sake of a party that only cares about the same interests the other party cares about, at least this one will drop a few crumbs in the process.
The real struggle is over and FDR, LBJ, The Kennedys, they all lost, we follow policy now straight out of the Heritage Foundation and The US Chamber of Commerce, if I speak against it, I will be without a party.
Better to enjoy the circus and hope for a few crumbs I guess.
Just too old to and sick (Lymphoma) to bother fighting alone anymore for anything that is the right thing to do, but that, was abandoned by my party, little things, like the rule of law.
