Omnislasher 10/22/19 2:27:54 PM #3 | konokonohamaru posted... I thought it largely obvious that the Democrats have 100% succumbed to the progressive technocrats and left the workers behind, which is exactly why we got Donald Trump. Yes, and Bernie Sanders represents the only chance (in terms of presidential candidates) to counter and reverse that. So he should be vigorously supported. |

Omnislasher 10/22/19 12:47:25 PM #1 | https://www.jacobinmag.com/2019/10/future-liberals-want-matt-karp-populism-class-voting-democrats If you plan to vote in the Democratic Party primary, are deciding between Warren and Sanders, and want to see real improvements in the material conditions of the mass of people, you should read this popular recent piece by Matt Karp if you havent already. Its not short. But it does an awesome job of explaining the historical and present contexts that frame the current juncture facing the Democratic Party, and why the choice between Sanders and Warren is in fact a stark one. Yes, Jacobin is an openly left-wing publication. There is no need to point this out. I plucked a couple excerpts for anyone wanting a small jist of the article first: The question here is not simply whether a Democratic candidate nominally supports unions, but where labor stands as a priority within the party. Memorably, Barack Obama supported the union-backed Employee Free Choice Act on the campaign trail, but after his election, he let the proposal die in Congress with barely a sound. We may choose to regard this as a shameful presidential betrayal, but like many Obama-era failures, it revealed far less about Obamas personal views than about an institutional Democratic Party dominated not by labor advocates but by professional-class politicians highly attentive to their professional-class constituents. (The rise of the broader Patagonia left, as a study of fifteen European countries has found, tends to produce a less pro-worker welfare state.) As an individual Democrat, Warren may be to the left of Obama, but there is little reason to believe that she has the capacity to change this larger state of affairs. ... Even in the best-case scenario, politics under a President Warren would almost surely resemble politics under Obama: careful negotiations between progressive professionals and stakeholders in Washington, in which the president seeks the least-worst outcome in a world of narrow and fixed constraints. An infinite variety of Yglesiases and Krugmans will luxuriate in the nuance, integrity, and ferocity of Warrens bold progressive agenda, even as fundamental economic structures remain unchanged. And then they will be shocked, just shocked, when the next Donald Trump swaggers into the White House and blows it all to bits. |

Omnislasher 10/19/19 12:20:23 PM #43 | on foreign policy you get a continuation of the same with Warren. insane military budgets including subsidies for the arms manufacturers, regime change wars, etc. on this stuff she basically just doesn't give a fuck. it's obvious. and this is the one area the president actually has inordinate power over. so yeah, enjoy that. on the domestic side, you can choose to believe that a technocrat's approach, a bit of regulation, naming and shaming this exec or that company, maybe even a prosecution here and there, can address the nearly total corporate seizure of the institutions and levers of power, or you can wake up. there is exactly one candidate who is identifying and constantly attempting to register the fact that a mass uprising will be necessary to actually enact structural change. that systemic change has always and will always come from the ground up, not from the top down. it doesn't mean it's guaranteed to happen, or work. but at least there's a chance. elect warren and watch nothing fundamentally change. simple as that. Obama redux - fun. |

Of all candidates except maybe Yang, he's the least guilty of playing political games.Which I can absolutely admire and respect >solicits private meeting with hillary clinton during primary campaiging >stages massive effort to reassure DNC insiders and party officials that she is a team player with no confrontational agenda >"transformational" aspirations Sorry, but you're wrong. Warren clearly does NOT want to be a transformational president. That only describes Bernie Sanders, who, aside from having the better platform and policies to that end, more importantly has the fundamentally correct theory of change, namely to directly challenge concentrated wealth/power and the structures that underpin them with the backing of a mass mobilized movement, which is already largely in place and growing. Elizabeth Warren is a technocrat. She wants you to elect her and then leave her be to do the tinkering around the edges that she loves. She will accomplish nothing because she has neither the ability nor intent to take on the interests that will fight tooth and nail every step of the way. Expect Obama 2.0 except even sadder. Or take the one realm of policy that the president actually does wield massive power over: the military, foreign policy. She's basically absent on the issue completely. Clearly not a priority. Try to find one aspect of Elizabeth Warren that suggests she will represent anything other than status quo foreign policy, ie. aggression and regime change. Nevermind her closeness with raytheon and approval of the most recent insane military budget. |
