  • America’s big problem is not Joe Biden, it’s the menace to democracy posed by Donald Trump

    It's neither, the problem is the illusion that we call democracy, and the compromises we (the people, not the rulers, of course) are told we have to make in order to maintain it (AKA the status quo) despite it being designed to keep us down (again, by providing an illusion of choice) rather than serve us.

    As another person already said - trump is just a symptom, it is the system that enables and encourages his existence, and it is the system that needs to be abolished if the working class is to ever have a shot at justice, equity, and equality.

    Articles like this are acts of systemic self defence - deflection to keep us looking at the illusion instead of the reality.
