The latest party line from DNC trolls is that we have to vote Blue to "retake the Senate". Apparently we're supposed to believe that if the Democrats get a majority in the Senate, they'll pass all sorts of progressive policies - like Medicare for All, UBI, a Federal jobs guarantee, and the Green New Deal.

You know. All the stuff that they absolutely refused to ever support before.

So we're supposed to support the Democratic Party? Seriously? The same Democratic Party that has done everything possible to BLOCK every progressive piece of legislation?

WHY?!?

There isn't time to "chip away". In ten years the planet passes the point of no return. Hundreds of millions will die, maybe billions, maybe EVERYBODY. Which means that we need to bring down the system within five years, AT MOST, if we're to have a prayer of saving humanity from extinction.

I don't understand why so many progressives are acting as if we have enough time to work through a political solution. We don't.

Vote Blue, and then reform the Democrats? Won't work. The Dems work for the same masters as Trump. Their policies are the same, right down to the genocide of the human race.

And TIME IS RUNNING OUT. In ten years or less, the planet passes the point of no return - and human civilization is doomed. Do you really believe that we have time to elect Democrats and then try to persuade them to shut down the fossil fuel industry - much less take the massive long-term action needed to save us from the worst effects of climate change? In less than ten years?

Biden is worse than Trump, actually. Their policies are virtually the same. Biden's more of a warmonger, though. If he's elected, we'll be at war with Venezuela and Syria (at least) within a year. He won't do a damned thing about climate change, because his fossil fuel donors wouldn't like that. So the planet and our species will be just as doomed under Biden as we are under Trump.

And don't forget, Biden was the major mover behind the Bankruptcy Bill that ruined millions of American families, the Crime Bill that jailed and enslaved millions of American citizens (mostly black ones), and voted for every single war he could.

The only difference is that the media will fall silent if Biden is President. He'll get a pass.

Lastly, Biden and the DNC destroyed democracy in America by blatantly rigging the Democratic primaries. That makes it personal. There's no way in HELL that I will give my vote or my approval to the people who stole our votes and our voices.

But if it's any consolation, it doesn't matter. Our votes don't matter. If voting could change the path that the world is on, it would be illegal. Trump and Biden are two sides of the same coin, and that coin is owned by the oligarchy.

THAT'S why we need a revolution. Because if we don't, humanity is going to go extinct.
