    Yes, all true. How do we realistically move forward? Out of a liberal democracy into a better form. Without making conditions worse for people.

      Did you happen to notice what Palestinians had to recently go through just to make people in the US’s blinkers fall off?

      There are no magic wands that will make this happen without things getting much, much worse. Of course, that doesn’t mean things won’t get much, much worse anyway.

        Heartbreakingly, they will continue to go through it. No one will be better off with the current administration.

        I suppose by your logic we have to go through fascism to achieve something better than liberal democracy. I just don’t think it’s better to go through fascism or necessary to achieve the larger goal.

        I still believe it’s the only logical step forward into a socialist society.

          Accept the liberal carrot and you won’t get the fascist stick. If the carrot is rotton to the core, just pretend it isn’t. Easy, no?
