We're Still Doomed
The Democrats won. Joe Biden won. But they also lost. That means that the majority lost. We lost.
They cannot be the progressive party going forward. We need a new party. Do we have the will and the energy to make it happen?
The American news media speculated that Hillary Clinton lost in 2016 because she was a woman. Well, she did much better than Joe Biden in Florida. Let’s give her credit. She might be the last Democratic presidential candidate to ever compete well in the Sunshine State.
I said this in 2017: I am done with American news media and the Democratic Party. This time I mean it. MSNBC is poison Kool Aid. If all you did was watch MSNBC since 2017, you’d be led to believe that Biden would win easily. Biden will win. But this win feels like a loss. The Democratic party is not a good opposition party, nor a good majority party. It’s weak. And the results show that.
The Democrats are terrible. US television news is awful (except for Vice News). This republic is finished.
And we’re drowning in plastic.
