If left wing policies were truly more popular, why didn’t the Democrats win? The voters didn’t get Bernie, so if you can’t get your ideal option, you instead take the worse of the two remaining ones? Even if voters were only voting for damage reduction, they’d still vote Democrat in that case.
But the Democrats didn’t win. The voters don’t want damage reduction. The voters want damage.
Many people are dissillusioned by the non-impactful electoral system and thus don’t vote
Democrats didn’t front anything remotely resembling left policies, but instead committed to being “adult” caretakers of Imperialism instead of nakedly like the Republicans promised
Genocide became a source of alienation when it was out in the open, rather than kept hush-hush
The American Proletariat is, ultimately, reactionary, due to being beneficiaries of Imperialism
