Lost all respect for lemmygrad when they deleted a comment i made about voting for the lesser of 2 evils being the correct course of action to advance the interests of the Prolitariat in the United States. They care more about larping as revolutionaries than enacting change that actually helps the Working Class.
I saw a lot of disapproval when California increased the fast food worker minimum wage and when Newsom signed the bill to increase sick days to 5. Yeah, they aren't where I ideally would want them to be but this is a nice win. The "revolution" doesn't happen over night but gradually democratically.
And amount of things Biden has done regarding unions and still bashing him for it. If Bernie did half those things people would be going crazy in the streets celebrating the "revolution".
I think the point of a revolution is, that it is sudden and over night. Otherwise it's called a reform. Not saying i disagree with anything else you said, just pointing out the semantics :P
And why I put it in quotes. A lot of lefties want people to go into the streets and riot and loot and march against corpos but that just isn't the reality of it.
