they don't win at all, you're just spitting platitudes ignorant of reality because you're old and it feels right

you ignored sur didn't respond to the crux of my argument and forced me to educate you on basic terminology so you could play semantic games all because you're having a fit your idols got criticized for their obvious flaws. If the content is too high level you can't follow class that's not my fault.

I'm sorry, I didn't see your initial post. I was trying to find a source for you, I didn't realize you were this committed to being dumb

Well I figured maybe a contemporary article from a leading neokeynesian would interest you but yeah you seem pretty content to be ignorant. I tried really hard to take you seriously but I guess a status quo "nothing is wrong" liberal probably was never going to be an intellectual powerhouse

I'm not talking about Biden, I don't think he is a neoliberal, but what do you mean Clinton isn't seen as an architect for modern neoliberalism?!

Obamas stimulus was widely scene as a return to Keynes but in many ways was just the new order being confronted with reality, he rhetorically and in other policy such as the ACA remained committed to neoliberalism. heres a contemporary article from krugman

Some are, the people I listed and the Democratic party more broadly are not. Clinton pioneered free trade and neoliberal organizations like the WTO while continuing on the path of privatization and is seen as the architect of the neoliberal order from the 90s to the 10s

this isn't Marx brother, that entry is extremely sympathetic to neoliberal ideology lol. In your performative anger at me, you've become completely disconnected from reality. You ascribe positions to me I don't hold and cannot accurately describe your own politics or the politics of your party.

I'd argue however in *spite* of my communism I'm much more pro democracy than you are because I at least care about listening to the electorate instead of pontificating from on high and telling them what they must accept or threatening them with fascism.

anti leadership, sure. They're incompetent and keep losing because of their pride and ignorance to the feelings of the country; giving the worst candidate in history an easy layup because people obviously know things are bad and the DNC gaslights them while the Republicans blame minorities.

I don't read the intercept and I'm pro free trade, you keep swinging and missing because you'd rather get emotional than think for two seconds. Free trade and Privatization are *the* cornerstones of neoliberalism, the fact that you don't understand even this tells me you're the one projecting lol

I'm a populist, a socialist, and a progressive these terms are also not exclusive to one another and I am also a registered Democrat. Your goofy cult like tendency to treat criticism of the dems as a personal attack + idolization and hero worship of politicians are why people compare you to MAGA.

You're just as out of touch as a trumper lol. They're American liberals and free trade neoliberals. These terms aren't exclusive and in fact synonymous the world over except the US where our terminology is borked because of the two party system and propaganda.

so are Clinton and Obama! Like, the Democratic party is adverse to even mild social democracy outside of progressives. On this, both parties were in lock step until Trump. You're denying both history and definitions in ignoring the historic neoliberal consensus. You BlueMAGA types are sure strange

you literally are a neoliberal! you don't even know what these words mean! Unless you're insinuating you're some kind of social democrat lol

you're a joke and a fossil, you use populist as a slur when really it means people ready to accept reality lol. neoliberal do nothingism is dead, as your party will be if they refuse to serve their base and the average American instead of corporate sponsors

you're right, obviously they should change absolutely nothing. do nothing to change the status quo, challenge their donors, or work on their messaging and narratives. Nope, let's all just say there's nothing we can do the country is too bigoted while we cede every battle to the right

And I'm sorry that morality and reality are in conflict and that morals *weren't* enough. But people are dumb and won't show up unless the vibes are right. The Dem party has to become left populist and meet the voters where they're at. We have to signal great change and then do it. 2/2

We can fight and win, even if there aren't elections again. but we have to move beyond "liberal institutionalism". The idea that the only power we have is at the ballot box, and that elections are just something we show up for and go back to brunch mimosas, some politician or rule will save us. 1/2

So you don't want to win, you just want to be upset. That's fair, take the time for that. But you have to know just being mad at the electorate and not changing strategy won't change anything right? You know that on some level?
