maybe im reading into this too much, but it feels like neolibs are taking this because they want to take credit for being the nazis enemies, which gives them a default moral high ground, even if they're doing nothing to actually fight the nazis.

----Dem midterm campaign ad, 2018----

(Scary voice over as the camera pans over a desolate wasteland)

Republican America, 2022.

The nation has been overrun by data centers.

Tens of millions of Americans have starved to death as all arable land is repurposed to build additional, unnecessary data centers.

Sea levels have risen three feet, submerging New York, Miami, and San Francisco as mountains of coal burn to power unnecessary data centers.

ok lets get back down to this because how can anyone possibly be aware of the data center issue, let alone so many people the dems think its top priority. is there some prankster administering the surveys who checks "consolidate data centers" every time someone mentions single payer

what if throw all of this on the cloud, then develop several competing ais to means test the poor and decide whether they get a prepaid bank of america card or an walmart's job application. whichever one helps generate the most tax credits for the middle class, wins.

So the democrats called me looking for money and started discussing the Better Deal. I politely told him that I have not been agreeing with how the Democrats have been handling things and the liberals need to start looking and talking with the left instead of ignoring or denouncing them. I told the man (who told me was a Bernie supporter) we should be listening to people like Keith Ellison and Elizabeth Warren, etc. He gave me a spiel about how one candidate was different in one state than the other and I sort of just zoned it out. I think he said something about money and something and I was about to reply that the oligarchy was the problem, but I was so focused on my shower that I just didn't care.

He says the democrats are listening but...:frog:
