This is saying nothing other than “neoliberalism bad” btw. Saying “a different and more intelligent face would be to elect a progressive” leaves the door wide open for you to walk away from. Cultural displacement caused Trump, not just economics.

Obama-Biden style corporate neoliberalism causes Trumpism to sprout out in the next cycle. The way to prevent Trumpism reemerging in 2032 with a different (and perhaps more intelligent) face would be to elect a PROGRESSIVE who can *actually* fix things.

There is actually something to that thing about cultural displacement. Not from immigrants though, but from private equity pillaging and destroying every cultural artifact from 3rd place to foodstuffs.

I’m sure putting a little more money in the pockets of their parents at the car plant is really going to make them come around to concept of gender, it’s definitely NOT a normative threat or anything to do with the predisposition to authoritarianism and a preference for sameness. It’s the billionaires making people hate their children, not ya know…anything more psychological or cultural.

Acting like people such as JK Rowling and Elon Musk haven’t been funneling insane amounts of money into propping up transphobic movements and legislators lmao Sure there’s a certain culture of unease that your average person might have towards trans people, I won’t deny that, but let’s also not pretend like this isn’t a massive movement astroturfed by billionaires as well

I forgot that the aversion towards trans people only came about once Elon Musk and JK Rowling started dumping money into it. It’s not like there was anything bad was happening before that right? I’m not the one acting here…you are…by pretending like billionaires and corporations are the direct reason it exists.

Yeah, I saw you strawman and blow past what I said to reassert that billionaires spend money on things they believe in and then you claimed it was “astroturfing”.
