comingafteryouall posted:"for the greater good" In their... "defense," their idea of greater good was probably to create a Reaganesque coalition of minority voters and centrists, create a theoretically more stable voting block than involving those nasty barely-voting socialists. And hey, it theoretically and incrementally raises the tide for everyone, so it's all fine, and everyone wins. Then it bit rear end this year.

MaxxBot posted:It's especially dumb because you don't need to do this to promote minority rights at any level. loving Ta-Nehisi Coates and BLM don't do this and they actually accomplish things. It's mostly twitter/tumblr warriors and white guilt idiots posting this stuff and they rarely accomplish anything other than making people mad on the internet. I wonder if Hillary would have seen losses amongst African American voters if Obama had tried to do anything to address the BLM movement. Fullhouse posted:bring back Huey Long

I want to drive the republicans out of power and back into their lovely whitebread mcmansions in the outer ring suburbs and pass a New New Deal that would make Eugene Debs blush I want a new Fairness Doctrine I want to break up the big defense companies because there aren't enough to ensure fair competition in contract bidding I want to return shipbuilding and warship design to Navy Department control so that ships are build in government facilities I want immigration and citizenship streamlined to cut the ground from the bastards who exploit illegal immigrants I want a UBI I want government-run health care I want strict corporate and banking regulations, but otherwise they're free to make as much profit as they want provided they pay money back into the economy so it doesn't just sit in the bank collecting interest I want the most progressive taxation plan possible I want the rich to have to spend a certain amount of their yearly earnings on projects that will benefit the public at large I want a strong military that can credibly protect America's allies I want a total rebuilding of our national infrastructure I want alcohol-free beer clearly labelled as such I want America to be the toughest, meanest, most productive, most inclusive, most happy, and greatest goddamned country on the face of the Earth and anyone who doesn't want the same thing can eat poo poo

the Roman rich had to placate the masses and win elections by spending themselves into debt on building public works and stadiums and parks and monuments the American rich get the poor to give them money so they can run for office and win elections to vote themselves tax cuts what is wrong with this picture

Zikan posted:this honestly pisses me off the most about the obama administration. it was good policy but it also would have been good electoral strategy to prop areas that the obama coalition was weak in. it would have been a shot in the arm for labor and given them hope and a reason to organize for the offense rather then the defensive meat-grinder they are currently in it's almost like it never happened tho. does anyone even talk about labor or card check anymore? sad!

I wonder how bad dems even justify backing leadership like Pelosi or Donna Brazile given their horrible record at supporting down ticket races. Don't forgot how they justified Hillary taking Wall Street money, not supporting organized labor and staying silent on issues like the Dakota Pipeline since it was necessary to defeat Trump

Pelosi, at a bare minimum, is good at her job of corralling House Democrats. Brazile et al seem entirely useless at anything at all other than "keep debilitating Clintonite stranglehold on the party, prevent anything ever getting better." But yeah gently caress anyone who stiffs organized labor, solidarity forever.
