I’m not here to convince you or anybody else. I can only speak from experience and things I’ve seen and gone through myself.

On a related note, both parties are full of lifetime career politicians who have had power for ages. If you really think they are in it for the good of people, these leeches, these self serving bastards, these amoral creatures, I’ve got several bridges to sell you. Ok just buy one

Hey, if you think generalizing 550+ politicians helps your case then there isn't anything I or anyone else can say to get through to you.

Ignorance is bliss.

This forum is an example of what I think you are trying to get at. It leans heavily to the left and open racism is not only tolerated but encouraged. There are several posters on here that judge people simply by the color of their skin. That spout remarks degrading an entire population of people because they are white. It’s quite frankly amazing, and the antithesis of what the civil rights movement strived towards. The racism tolerated on here (and seemingly in society at large) is a slap in the face to all the hard work put in by the civil rights era activists. They wanted an equal and just society, many on here want a divided one.

Most of us who are progressives, never actually considered the Clintons to the "left"- they were neoliberals and centrists. If you consider the rise of the surveillance state and the drone wars, Obama was a centrist too. I was/am a Sanders supporter and one who advocates for the Nordic Model, which has shown to be the most equitable, most democratic system of government by various metrics.
