That’s exactly what I mean. I don’t give a damn about the Democratic party. Organizing on the local level is for mutual aid, labor protections, etc. Local leftist (not Dems, leftists) organizations do a lot.
Well it’s nice to come around to some common ground. By “not a win for leftists” I only meant not really anything that will shift liberals to organization (in fact sometimes it seems evidence points to liberals winning = less organized action and more capitulation to the capitalist class/ratchet effect yadda yadda) But I would love to be proven wrong; that a blue Texas would actually make a difference for the left and not just create another AOC/Newsome to eye up the presidency in 8 years.
If Dems create even the most basic of polices that help the average American in Texas. Then hopefully that continues to snowball. And if it does and Texas becomes a battleground state or permanently blue. Republicans have no shot of ever winning again
Like I said I’ve heard Texas is going blue for decades and not once has it ever been close. So I don’t know if these pollsters are just dead wrong or if there’s an actual chance. I won’t believe until Dems actually win
I generally agree, regardless of which neoliberal party wins, the capitalist class benefits. However, I think placing both parties on the same playing field there is irresponsible. There is a reason all of the billionaire Epstein class is trying really, really hard to maintain Republican control. I prefer the better of two bad options over accelerationism.
