The progressive side of our politics still lives in the dem party and we have a better chance of getting our ideas out there in that party. Either by election like Mamdani or by appointment like Lina Khan.
To be clear I don't think Lina Khan was a lefty. Still her tenure in the FCC was rather pro consumer and pushing back on big corporations. That would not happen at all in any rep admin.
It's more about power than ideas. The problem with the establishment Dems is not that they have the wrong ideas but that they have been purchased by the oligarchs who get to win whether they get a D or an R.
What does this have to do with Biden giving Bibi exactly what he wanted?
The thread is about both-sides-sim. I pointed out a case in how its still helpful to vote as left as possible.
Yeah and left is not letting Bibi get a single thing, even if that means losing Israel as an ally and supporting a party that's not a major one.
