Caitlin Johnstone @Caitoz on the false political dichotomy:
if Trump was allowing these things to happen in the United States it would be because he is the second coming of Adolf Hitler, but when Biden does it it’s because he’s walking a fine line of nuance and diplomacy and something something political pragmatism.
@marsfield @breadandcircuses @Caitoz If HRC was elected, we’d have a less right wing supreme court and Roe v Wade would still be the law of the land. Access to birth control and gay marriage would not be in danger. Affirmative action would be on stronger ground. The US Labor Board wouldn’t be in jeopardy. If a few of you “both sides are the same” folks voted for Gore, we wouldn’t have killed 100,000 Iraqis. Yes, I know spineless Democrats authorized that insanity which is exactly why voting for President and the cabinet they choose matters.
It takes an insane amount of privilege to pretend both side are the same. Biden’s handling of the Gaza crisis isn’t great, if you think Trump’s wouldn’t be significantly worse, you lack imagination.
You want to change things? Run for local offices and drag the conversation to the left. Highjack the Democratic Party at the local level. That’s the only real hope.
