    Seems like all the competent people went to finance and justifying war think tanks, and we are left with these type of clowns for politics

        I don’t know, but I think anyone who cares about progressive ideals should try to make it advantageous for amoral intelligent people to favor those ideals.

        There’s no such thing as doing anything for altruistic or communal prospects just for the sake of it, nothing is turning back that clock on reaping the benefits of capitalism, and we can only work with what we have now.

        I think ultimately everyone wants self-preservation, where family and community may be an extension of the self, that’s a good starting point. Things are super depressing now to say the least, which is why people who believe in progressive ideals need to hold on even harder.
