As long as the wealthy are in power, they're gonna keep saying that they should never experience any negatives
The good news is, the only reason they're in power is we kept letting them be the only two options.
The DNC pivoted away from neoliberalism a year ago, so we'll get a fair primary and no neoliberal can win one of those.
Hillary had to use Bill's charisma to get the neoliberals in power, and then Obama just fucked off and ignored it instead of taking it back when he could have.
Like, it sucks, but this really is a "darkest before the dawn" moment. When the great depression hit we got FDR, we just had to deal with a couple months of armed veterans living at the Washington monument and that piece of shit Hoover actually sending tanks against them.

People that act like this is new and unprecedented are just ignorant of history.
There's a path where we fix most of America's problems including holding all these oligarchs responsible in the next five years. We've literally never been this close and if Kamala was in office we'd honestly be even further away and likely know even less from the files right now.
Which is again why having a non iased dnc is so important right now.
