We’re not just a little bit off; we are really, really far off from ordering our society along principles of sustainability, compassion or even sanity. We regularly sacrifice the good of our people and planet at an altar of delusional economic theory. This is bad but it’s fixable

Who do envision doing the “ordering of society”? Sounds fascist.

Our democratic laws and traditions. That’s the whole point of a representative govt: That the will of the people, not short term corporate profit, should drive public policy. Democracy is the opposite of fascism.

Call out the radicalism and denounce it at every opportunity. It's the only way to save the left.

Boom. Spot on.

I agree. But the question is “fixable” by what means? I predict that, over the next few years, we, as an entire society, will be forced to make huge changes, of the kind you seem to be asking for. This pandemic is just the start. Fasten your seatbelts!

The path to life exists but wisdom says that we must take it.
