Sharks Eat Bear posted:Man I could not disagree more with the arguments against “don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good”. It’s just a heuristic formulation of the scientific method, and is fundamentally aligned with a Marxist analysis of history and social progress*. Don’t let rationalism blind you from what’s actually happening in front of your eyes. The perfect only exists as an abstract concept, social relations in the real world will, by definition, never be perfect. Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. It’s super weird that y’all don’t understand this We understand perfectly well when were being accused of being blinded by ideology, that's what we're responding to

Voters only decide who they are voting for and we know that there are other concerns than who is "progressive", so that is transparently nonsensical

This entire notion that voters determine who is and who is not "progressive" is bunk. Biden is not progressive because he won, anymore than Trump is
