I think it was as we were nearing the front that the realization of how bad of a situation this actually was hit me. It may have been when I saw someone protesting the event while waving the Flag of the Soviet Union, the USSR flag with the hammer and sickle

lol the picture of the person with flag also has them holding a sign decrying trump as a white supremacist

hey, maybe since we're in a new gilded age, we're about to enter a new progressive era??

technically that guy is wrong and 1913 was part of the progressive era. the gilded age ended in the 1890s

i went to grad school with an idiot who got hired by the cia. there was a mosque near the campus and he'd always cross the street so he wouldn't be walking near it because he was afraid they would kill him. they operated an awesome bbq restaurant next door and he'd freak out anytime post-conference dinners would be held there because they might "poison his food".

imagine if you will an organization staffed by the failsons and daughters of the elite, each convinced they are smarter than everyone else in the room, with no oversight and completely unwilling to accept any responsibility

the schism/faction thing in the party is irrevocable, at this point... there's not going to be any dem electoral victories for the near future bc so many berdies won't vote for bad dems anymore while lanyards are sticking with their corporate-donors-and-pragmatic-baby-steps-are-just-fine-and-who-needs-single-payer-anyway scripts.

I guess some of the congressional races in 2018 will garner votes from both types of dems, especially where there aren't primary contests, but the next presidential race is prolly a lost cause. Warren & Franken are kinda feet-in-both-camps (rather, they're perceived that way) but there's no way Perez et al. are gonna turn their trite pap and trump-bad reflexes into a united and victorious party in the next few years.

THANKS, OBERNIE

2018 is going to be a wash unless these programs to find candidates actually dig up some human beings to run. if 2020 doesn't give us a unity ticket/candidate I don't think the party can recover

Reconstruction has historically not been good for the Democrats.

uh reconstruction went great for them, in less than a decade after losing the loving civil war they had practically re-enslaved hundreds of thousands of black people and regained total control of the south

anyhow the democrats are a dead party and everyone should join the DSA

No, that was after Reconstruction my friend.

i'm nearly finished reading eric foner's history of reconstruction and it was during, ultimately reaching its heights with the end of reconstruction with the election of hayes. basically almost immediately the republicans tried to forge a moderate national party by working with southern democrats, allowing many to crawl back into power, and throwing blacks to the wolves. this was what allowed the democrats to gain enough power to force the 1876 compromise on hayes
