The question most of us are faced with: do you want change? Not a little bit, unraveling heaving world-historic change?

And libs said, no, they just want things to be a little bit better (preferably for them). You are getting in the way of the mindscape that let’s them think that the system can produce limited small “good” change. They don’t want to think about the genocide in Gaza, or the invasion of Lebanon, or countenance that their support for blue MAGA could mean an attempted invasion of Iran - or at least an unlimited bombing campaign. They don’t want to think about the people outside the wire, especially if those people are there political “enemies” they’ve identified as citizens in the south. What they want are Pell grants to people creating small businesses in undeserved communities for 5 years or student loan forgiveness after 15 years of service as an underpaid teacher. They don’t want to think about the faceless masses living coterminous lives of suffering on the exact city streets they invisibly occupy.

When you had to confront that question - you said “yes I want change, I want the wars of imperialism to end, I don’t want people to be genocided and I’m ready to take apart the means of that genocide”
