Yeah solving this problem is going to take somewhere between a hundred and a thousand Luigis…

Everyone who perceived the Harris pivot as “playing to lose” has ideas about it. We’re over-represented on Lemmy as compared with the voting public. The Republican party has been sufficiently horrifying for sufficiently long, that there is an entire generation of voters who “lean left”, but have no idea where to even begin actually holding their party accountable for things.

In 1984 Jesse Jackson had his Rainbow Coalition, but they gave us Walter Mondale. The same thing happened with Bernie in both 2016 and 2020. In the USA there is a capitalist part and a fash party, and no room is permitted on the stage for anything other than tightly controlled powerless opposition.

Yep. Better to get to the finish line of life with no identity whatsoever. Life is meant to be left unlived.
