Preach.
You’re right a coup or revolution is probably the only way out for the US at this point. But when that day comes, reestablishing democracy with the rules of today would be a bad idea, since the capitalists know how to game the system. So if we acknowledge that democracy is broken, and authoritarianism isn’t the way, we need a new system. Hopefully this post helped to give some ideas what a new system could look like.
Not gonna happen anytime soon or probably in our lifetimes. The left greatly underestimates how big of a factor racism and culture war nonsense is in this country. They just don’t want to admit it.
Ah, but that’s no reason to give into defeatism. Words and wisdom can survive our lifetimes, so it’s never too early to practice them.
