Democrats hate the left
more than they hate the right. Democrats are allegedly the counter
weight to the right wing in America when in reality their goal is to
replicate the same policies. The subterfuge inherent in the political
duopoly allows them to live off the pretense of defending the people
from the neo-liberal forces they in fact support.
Their hatred is most evident when people who are truly on the left
dare to make the case for political change. When Al Gore and Hillary
Clinton won the popular vote but lost presidential races in the
Electoral College, Democratic Party scorn was directed solely at the
Green Party and their voters.
In both elections there were far more instances of registered
Democrats voting for George W. Bush and Donald Trump respectively. One
would think that they would be marked for condemnation. Instead the
Democrats show their true colors, excusing and placating the turncoats
in order to make the case for “lesser evil” neo-liberalism and
imperialism.
