    Thank you Radical Left and what’s left of the American checks and balances system for helping us resist the oppression of the Right for at least a little bit longer.

      are talking about when walz resisted progress by teaming up with trump for oil pipelines?

      or when Harris resisted discourse by inviting republicans to their democrat gala and gatekeeping the protestors outside?

      was the resisting done when the democrats fought tooth and nail to keep Roe v. Wade from falling?

      is the resisting you are referring to when obama resisted to help insurance companies from going under by mandating we all must get for profit insurance?

      what resisting are you referring to?

          while i understand where that comes from…hard not agree accelerationism is working.

          the american people as a whole are…kind of dumb as shit (this being by design, our public education system meant specifically to make compliant factory workers), many will only learn through direct personal pain.

          someone correct me if i’m wrong, but wasnt it not till the great depression that the US has its first major surge in left-wing activism. maybe we just need a economic collapse so severe and widespread that it scars a generstion into thinking “maybe we do need to work together to survive”, regardless of how some talking head on a screen tells them to feel about their neighbors
