Only people on this site would get me when I say I’m utterly baffled how I’m watching the exact same force that “organically” coalesced to endorse Biden in 2020 when flattened-bernie was about to run away with it. Not like he would’ve done anything, but think about how much of a threat a negligible tax increase posed.

Absolutely terrifying how organized the bourgeois are. How do people not recognize that they’re just as subservient to US capital as the people of the CPP are to socialist characteristics

They recognize it just fine. They simply do not care. Remember a lot of Americans think of themselves as "temporarily embarrassed billionaires." Or their adherence to the white, cisshit, male power structure means they will gladly stamp out anything that threatens that power.

Despite the obviousness of the DNC rallying around Biden during the primary, they still got more people to vote along the party line. They still had to get the majority of votes for Biden and that's exactly what happened because so-called liberals want to uphold American hegemony more than they want healthcare or education.
