    AOC met with the coup organisers. Right now she’s streaming Among Us on Twitch to distract herself.

    In that vein, they should also stop turning a MAS victory into an argument for voting out fascism considering it took working class organization, strikes, blockades and whatnot to even get this result in the first place.

    I honestly think that Evo Morales is a lowkey Marxist, or at least influenced by Marxism, which is the best we can hope for.

      What are the indicators you use to arrive at this assessment?

          Eh, it’s just a symbol. Upholding socialism doesn’t necessarily make one a Marxist.

        He’s sometimes said that he was influenced by Marx, or said nice things about him.

    It would have been cool if Bernie ran independently or 3rd party or whatever, I would like to see how a real 3rd party push with momentum would play out. Not that I think it would work lol

      Don’t think it would work either. As much as the left has become more visible in the US this year, the US in general still gives way too much legitimacy to the 2 party system. So much so that supposed leftists trip over their feet to convince people to vote for Biden.

    Isn’t it too late for another Crazy Bernie attempt? won’t he be too old?

    It will be more difficult to vote out neoliberalism in USA than other nations due to being the center of global capitalism. Election spending is much higher than other nations
