Polling shows Americans are ready to support independent populists running on economic platforms. But what they don’t want is anything associated with the Democratic Party’s brand.
I’m not a centrist, nor a neoliberal, nor whatever else you may associate with the Democrats. I don’t even live in the US, and where I do live, I vote left. But that only works because we have a representative democracy, where my vote counts even if it’s not a plurality vote.
So please spare me your moral grandstanding and deflection and consider what I’m actually talking about instead.
So you have no clue what it’s like to be in a country where one party is fascist and the only other viable party takes advantage of that to not represent you.
