Perelman, Michael wrote: "People still believe that Saddam is responsible for
9-11 & Obama is a Kenyan, or that climate change is a hoax."
Then Raghu replies: "I don't think anyone actually believes these things. These
are all codewords.."
This is ridiculous from the beginning. "People" in Michael's post utterly
obfuscates any useful political discussion.
We (the yet non-existent Left) don't give a shit about what some 70% of the
population thinks or doesn't think at this time. We care about the two or three
percent that can be reached now believe. Three percent, remember, means 9
million plus. Think about what a movement of even half that number would mean.
Of course most are opposed to us now. If that bothers you, get out of politics
because you can only spread confusion.

Or maybe people are not so ignorant after all, by choosing not to vote.
I have been trying very hard to understand the logic of this: why is choosing
not to vote a good strategy for anyone?
