Food for thought, what I call a #MagnificentQuestion.

> What’s Wrong With the American Left: Captured by the Professional Class https://www.counterpunch.org/2026/06/15/whats-wrong-with-the-american-left-captured-by-the-professional-class/
FTA: "Thomas Frank captured one face of this in What’s the Matter with Kansas?, asking why working people vote against their economic interest. But the deeper question runs the other way: why has the party of the left given them so little economic reason to vote for it? When a movement led by the credentialed offers the working class culture war on one side and means tested technocracy on the other, it should not be surprised when the working class drifts away."
Queue up the butthurt Dems protesting they are not so bad because this just the kind of thing they refuse to hear.
Ideas do not float free of the people who hold them, and the abandonment of class has a sociological shape. The center of gravity of American progressive politics has shifted from the working class to the college-educated professional. The activists, staffers, donors, writers, and increasingly the voters who set the tone of the movement are drawn from a stratum secure enough to treat economic survival as a solved problem. For this group, politics can become what it cannot be for the precarious: a matter of values, expression, and culture rather than of rent, wages, and health.

FTA: "My political theory is simple: most people are fucking idiots."
I share that theory. Still, @rudepundit gives the #RepublicanLite a path, if they choose to stop snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

While I do believe in miracles, I am not holding my breath on this one. This Andy Barr's old territory.

And while some wait for the #useless #RepublicanLite to grow a spine, this may be of interest for some wanting to do a bit more.
I should've known it would not be long before some #useless #RepublicanLite defender showed up to tell me how they are not so bad. You may not be "so bad," you just go along with it, maybe write a sternly worded letter.
I ain't got time for that. Cut the bs.

And yet stupid #gringos keep voting for the same morons over and over. You can't fix #stupid.

FTA: "Christian nationalists need the Mormons and their votes, so they’ll pretend to be friends for now. But should the day come that the Christian nationalists get the power they desire, they won’t stop at stripping non-Christians of their full rights. They’re coming for other Christians, too. This is why the nation’s founders instituted religious freedom — they witnessed how Europe was torn apart by wars waged between different flavors of Christianity. It could happen here, too, and worse, aided by Christian voters who delusionally believe they won’t be kicked out the second white evangelicals get their chance."
So the #CosmicJoker keeps on laughing.
