    So vote for progressive candidates in primaries, but given the chance to postpone the advent of a self-declared right wing dictatorship for 4 years, with as complete state capture as he can manage, and now with the SCOTUS nothing’s-illegal ruling, that’s a lot, and you’re sitting on your hands? That’s the crazy to me. That’s the deluded hypocrisy of the typical tankie.

    Tankies prefer the poor to suffer less,

    So why would you sit by impotently and allow trump to make the poor suffer more?

      I literally just explained the reasoning for my position. The strategy of preserving the status quo is a doomed, defeatist strategy. Even if it means starting from square 1, it’s better to push for a solution that actually has the potential to work.
