Much like it's cousin fascism, neoliberal capitalism is a self defeating ideology.

That’s an interesting point I’d have to read more about. It’s bound to be a less spectacular defeat than Rome in 1943 and Berlin and Tokyo in 1945, but I also wonder if part of that is that it doesn’t inspire belief, much less fanaticism. Do you think people will rage against the end of The End of History?

His answer to the "question" was "who gives a poo poo"; or in longer form "sure religion is all fake but no reason to cheer on a bourgeois state making GBS threads on religious minorities for nationalistic reasons"; so yeah he more or less was

Also, it was Bruno Bauer asking The Jewish Question.

Republicans have a solid 35% and Democrats have a solid 30% now each can lose about five percent if they royally gently caress up like GWB did but still it means a majority of the country 55% are entirely enslaved to the big two. Now continued decline under the GOP under Trump 2nd term could make this less but I do believe that effectively at this point whatever comes to take over will have to accept it is effectively disenfranchising half the country due to them having brain worms for the big two.
Accounting for voter turnout, it's closer to only a third.

Also non white overall. Dems deserve to die like the whigs.

I guess you could make the argument that Biden's relative popularity among the educated whites and suburban women could limit the Dems losses next year because these people are more likely than other groups to vote in a midterm. It's cynical as hell, but it might work.

That's staking loyalty on a group that quickly turns on dems with the right Dog whistles like what the Youngkin did in VA.

He was never going to have to anyway.

But I think his next move is to run for governor again based on what was going around my old workplace(s) (Greenbrier and people who would know).

Whatever he runs for next is probably his last election. He's not really interested in the pomp and circumstance of it, he just wants people to think that he matters.

So clearly the Democrats are going to get destroyed in 2022, so it is written and so mote it be. But what kind of chud is going to be swept into office nationwide? Will there be a big enough tidal wave of Qanon congresscritters that Q drops will set national policy? Or are we just going to get a bunch of boring stepped up small business tyrants vying to be the next Trump?
