Yup, and this can only go for so long because after a few election cycles people start cluing in that their life's getting worse regardless of what clowns are in charge.

it's been going for approximately four decades in the US and the liberals are still clueless

The liberal mainstream is collapsing now though. The real problem is that most people who fall out of it go the right.

If you look at the labor movement that formed during the Great Depression, I think it clearly shows that yankees are capable of organizing when pushed against the wall.

When has that ever happened? lol

I mean it's happening all over the west as we speak. People are becoming increasingly disillusioned with the political system. They're still not at the stage where they have enough political awareness to take meaningful action, but that will come too.

they'll mostly become either fascists, or the kind of useless socdems who watched as Hitler took power

That is very likely unfortunately.
