Capitalism. You mean capitalism. Biden is still subsidizing oil and endorsing the construction of new wells. Voting blue won't save you.
2 1 ReplyBurn_The_Right @lemmy.world Biden is a neo-liberal. Neo-liberals are conservatives. They are better dressed and more intelligent, but they are conservatives by all international measures.
We need progressives in the Democrat party. People are starting to see that, but it appears it's a bit late for that now. I honestly do not see a peaceful solution to the conservative infestation.
