@RebelGeek99@mastodon.social i mean with the greens they play this respectability trip while also saying things that are not very politically savy -- like with the Syria thing, i both sympathized with the revolution but also opposed US intervention, just like I hate Putin and I respect the ukranians right to resist an imperialist invasion, but have never been gung ho on US support for Ukraine -- and now with trump being dependent on the US is going to bite them in the ass -- you can oppose US imperialism without making apologies for foreign dictators, it's really not hard. But this goes beyond the greens and speaks to how there really is no organized leftist force in the US that is able to articulate a genuine working class perspective.
Like personally, why do the greens where suits? Just wear a T-shirt and jeans, and why settle for milquetoast positions when you're gonna lose anyway? ... and hey, maybe now a real working class party can begin to take shape, but that's only possible with a militant working class movement behind it... just like "pushing the dems left" requires a working class movement that can actually push them left and until that we'll always be reacting to bourgeois political formations.
