I have been absolutely delighted by Let's go Brandon, but annoyed that it's always Trump as the alternative. I agree with the person in this thread who said there is a lot more discontent outside of Trump’s contingency. I’ve been really shocked how powerful rampantly repressive neoliberal corporate takeover is if you just sprinkle a little identity politics on top. Seriously, the same people who were critiquing globalization, pharma and bad trade deals, and supporting free-speech are... where? These issues used to be firmly the territory of the left. What’s... left? Now anyone questioning power can’t even get an interview anywhere but Christian, libertarian and conservative media. my question to those who still think Trump is the great hope is: what on earth makes you think that man is going to do anything substantively different about those issues? I feel like it’s time to stop talking about the office of the presidency entirely.
