124. The opposition will always have more. Giving money to dems is big industries ways of

hedging their bets. Putting in place a backup plan.We are perpetuating a system that gives unfairly to one side more than to democrats, because too many of our own democrats have decided that the only way to change the system is to play by the rules of the system, which means get cozy with those king makers. .

I don't actually disagree with this if you take their efforts hand-in-hand with those outsider lefty influences that then apply pressure to those insiders to take bigger chances, because of course, barring some sort of actual revolution or coup, non-establishment figures are never going to be seated in official seats of power because they are railing against the system rather than operating within it.

Also, I think that many and maybe most of our democratic politicians(I will not say all) have very altruistic intentions, and generally speaking are not sociopathic, whereas, fuck, most republican leaders are or are damn near sociopathic. so no, I don't really think they are the same. I do think their choices have empowered republicans rather than diminished them over the last few decades. I think this happened because they've tied their own hands and claimed that their hands are tied all in the service of expedience and pragmatism.

Oh! sorry, yeah, I will try to find time to read Alinsky.
