The problem is that the democrats / social democrats around the world have really become corporatism and are now exploiting the far right - they don't have to enact left wing policies and can move further to the right or just do nothing. And then you're called to prevent "literal hitler". Yeah you have to, but it's a catch 22.

A "green new deal" or universal healthcare isn't even talked about anymore. People are just so sick of this shitocracy. And it's spreading everywhere.

Yes.

and are now exploiting the far right

...

You think Nancy Pelosi goes home every night and says "Thank god for Trump! Now I can do all the blandly centrist things I was doing anyway, and he's here to make it easier for me!"

And then you’re called to prevent “literal hitler”. Yeah you have to, but

You don't need the "but." Yeah you have to. That's a complete statement and it doesn't need anything else. You don't want to walk it back in any way. Yes. You have to stop Hitler. Glad we're in agreement.

Honestly, I'd agree with you if it weren't for the fact that it's blatantly obvious that our country is done and the only real meaningful solution available is to up and start a new one.

You all really, REALLY need to start fomenting an independent country before it's too late.
