Sorry Dennis -- but I've already thrown in my lot with the "FASCISM IS COMING, THE WORLD IS BURNING" crew ---- I know that this is a (miniscule?) minority position on this list --- I know that the majority of people here do not accept the analogy to the refusal of Communists and Socialists to make common cause against Hitler --- but that is the (heretical?) reason why I am "toadying" for a worthless party --- So that is why even a horrible corporate democrat is to be preferred to Trump --- That person would owe his/her presidency to the energized youth and people of color --- and unlike Obama will have to deliver in order to get re-elected -- Lessons learned by the disappointments of the Obama administration MIGHT actually lead to an upsurge in activism that will keep the ball rolling --- We know what we'll get with Trump -- more judges, more support for polluters and fossil fuels, more validating racism and xenophobia --- the planet may already be too far gone but it will DEFINITELY be with four more years of Trump .... Therefore, I think almost any Dem alternative would be qualitatively better than Trump --- But you're probably right --- such sentiments are probably not very useful on a Marxist discussion list --- On Tue, Feb 25, 2020 at 1:29 PM Dennis Brasky <dmozart1...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >> _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
