    Isn’t it funny how we used to say the opposite just 3 short years ago. That the neoliberal base were the optimum political sector to recruit from. And now to look back on it. Many of us did come from the socdem neoliberal base, perhaps we plucked all of the fruit from the tree and now all that’s left is thorns?

      I always wonder this too. I think perhaps there are libs that are well intentioned and open to learning and then there are those who pay lip service to progress while devoted to maintaining empire/ status quo.

      I just see homelessness increasing, lack of healthcare, wars, sanctions, the earth warming, etc and it’s too obvious that the liberal world order is a complete failure. If the world is telling them and they don’t listen, may be some don’t want to hear it.

        The division is along class lines; Many labor aristocratic PMC are the few democratic base prols still marching behind the neoliberal regime lock and step. The poorer PMC and service prols previously of the dem base have already joined us either here or in the outskirts of the left with the anarchists and social democrats. The industrial capital middle class are…lost and confused as per always 😂 This is the way things look to me anyway
