With some prominent Democrats and liberal pundits arguing for the party to try to win Elon Musk back to its side, you have to ask: Is American politics simply a matter of who can best kiss the ass of narcissistic reactionary billionaires?
The reason they’re both moving to the right is that they are both right-wing parties, beholden to the same capitalist interests.
That’s what a lot of you keep telling yourselves to self soothe all the failures
There’s always excuses. But the fact is the left lost the plot a long time ago.
Hey, here is another example. The left can’t ever set it self up for success. Chase all the money and power away. Then wonder why there’s been a steady decline.

Your logic doesn’t explain why that trend has persisted since these two parties were founded. Much easier just to wave the whole issue away by blaming the people who aren’t represented by the two-party system, right? They should change their politics to match the party and not the other way around, right?
