> sicced on the Party in order to stymie cooperation and actual social democratic reform
I was just wondering how this happened. I guess both parties became part entertainment industry to stay relevant, only the right shoehorned the left into defending idpol and made the right into flying monkeys for their dark triad leader. This leaves 1/3 of the electorate to build coalitions open to voices of reason like Professor Sachs or anyone who understands how we got here and how to move forward. Pragmatism comes from experience, and the lack of it in all would be 'leaders' means remaining a kakistocracy.
