Greetings good citizen, from a 'mission accomplished' point of view those whose aim it was to frustrate voters by taking the civility out of civic obligations succeeded in poisoning the well of social discourse.
One would think and the conservative even pretends that they have legitimate objections to the issues they hold dear but no, it's not an 'argument' they offer, it's rejection, plain and simple. When pressed for an explanation they usually come up with the same tired variant of weakening the moral fabric of society.
They can't get more specific and become indignant when pressed. Suddenly it's 'smartypants' picking on the poor 'morally upright' kid.
What brought this on? I received an e-mail from the Our Revolution people telling me where I could go online to 'rubber stamp' THEIR agenda...
In it was a list that opposed a series of hot button issues 'our' politicians were unable to defeat when their campaign contributors submitted them to congress (usually attached to an 'appropriations bill', the 'new way' to get unpopular legislation passed.)
As I read the list I didn't see a single 'solution' to any of the social problems facing society. The very first issue was 'income inequality' but there was not even a suggestion as to how they would go about resolving this issue.
So who are our 'self-professed' revolutionaires and like the 'they came out of nowhere' 'progressives', did they think 'rebranding' themselves is all it would take to win back confidence in the 'defunded and defunct' Democrats?
Like the decidedly 'tone deaf' founders of the "We hold these truths to be self-evident' fame, the White Men decided that they spoke for every white man (the rest don't count!)
WTF? Isn't this how the whole CF got started?
Because as close as I can tell, 'Our Revolution' is simply more of the same, re-branded. Everybody knows the symptoms, why the patient is 'sick' but this agenda they put forward doesn't offer a single (workable) solution.
Actually it didn't offer ANY solutions, workable or otherwise.
If they spelled out what they intended to do about the mess the opposition has made of the nation it would drive their already wary followers into the arms of their opponents.
Especially since the objective behind 'Our Revolution' is NOT to oppose the status quo but to further divide those who do.
What does it tell you that the 'crumpled like a paper cup' Bernie Sanders sits at the head of this 'faux revolution'?
You all know what I would do to correct the social and economic problems facing our society. [Exile the feckless, outlaw cash, prohibit ownership because despite capitalist doctrine to the contrary, survival isn't competitive, it's 'cooperative'! If survival were competitive we'd be obliged to kill one another on sight.
Thinking, it's the 'anti-dope'!
That said I don't see a lot of 'support' for OR. It is ubiquitous on Facebook as the people who get paid to do such things snipe across the political no man's land at one another...and it literally is 'no man's land'.
The public has given up on politics because it has become obvious the process is corrupt and the people defending it are in league with those who would enrich themselves at our expense.
NOBODY likes being taken for a CHUMP.
Thanks once again for letting me inside your mind,
