    It really was the tipping point for me, solidified that yes, there really is only one party in the West (the capitalist party) and also that even a pandemic that threatens to kill and/or cripple most of the population will be met with the same half-assed non-solution as climate change. There is nothing that will make them admit that capitalism is a suicide deal. No end to their delusion. They’re a cult. There is no reasoning with a beast like that, so it solidified for me that the only way out is revolution.

    I really feel like the left should have made a bigger deal about the shadow app shit in the 2020 primaries, I feel like the whole “we won’t make a scene if Bernie loses” might have been exactly what the Dems wanted.

    It didn’t make me lose faith in humanity, though, it just confirmed without a doubt that, yes, the tankies were right after all.
