They just play their roles in order to maintain the status quo. Unfortunately there's a consistent part of Americans who are too dumb to understand this

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, anti-communism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

What is it with all of the american politicians siding with israel over their own countries citizens and most of the rest of the world? That's pretty damned scary.
We legalized bribery and Israel bribed them. Blackmailed the rest.
Fascists keep each other in power.
My assumption is that Israel's data collection machine has all the dirt on these motherfuckers and/or someone close to them. I don't know that definitively, but we learned enough from the Epstein Files to know that Israel's intelligence gathering is second-to-none.
That and outright bribery via AIPAC money.
The only hopeful thing is that Mamdani wasn't content to take NYC and the nation by storm. He's lowering the ladder behind him and helping other DSA's get elected too.
There are two parties, they're just both right wing.
And of course it's Jared Golden, another Dino. He's basically John Fetterman Jr. So glad he's not seeking re-election. He's been as useful as a cock-flavored lollipop.
So is Perez from WA. She always seems to show up in the articles where democrats teach across the aisle.
She's from Southwest Washington if I'm not mistaken, basically the Kentucky of Portland.
So once we build the guillotines, how do we choose where to start?
You don't build the guillotines, you build the all-US working class revolutionary party apparatus. The job of the party is to create a disciplined cadre of educated professional organizers, and for these organizers to help reach out to their local communities, organize tenant and labor unions, and connect these local organizations to the national and international struggle. This is the requirement for successful revolution.
When capitalism reaches crisis that means the government cannot effectively govern, and the people cannot effectively live, this results in struggle. The party then, already entrusted and supported by the people, can help organize everyone into one democratic front against the state. This is where struggle turns to revolution.
Parties like PSL are trying to build that party apparatus, and as a consequence have come under fire by the state.
