Since that time, trillions of dollars have been spent by the wealthiest interests - what FDR called “economic royalists” - to convince people that wanting the government to help them better their lives is asking for socialist tyranny. In many ways the propaganda worked. 2/4

But there are signs that things are changing. People are seeing what’s been done to them. But corporatist forces are doing everything possible to defeat progressive candidates, bust unions, squash environmental activism and suppress civil liberties. 3/4

Congressional primaries are happening right now. This is the moment to get involved, to send people to Washington who’ll take on the real tyranny of our time - corporate tyranny - and break its stranglehold on the US government. Candidatesummit.com 4/4

Instead of dividing us and trying to bring down private corporate enterprise why not just get campaign finance reforms accomplished. That would solve the issue. Reason you don’t do it is progressives are against it as are republicans.

So hateful and divisive! What corporate tyranny are you speaking about? What is being done to@people?

Except IF a progressive candidate isn't crushed by the DNC in their election, the DNC will crush them once they are in office. What is your strategy for dealing with that?

Do you still believe elections are exempt from hackers, manipulations, and outcomes aren't already decided??? It's an illusion to make us believe we still have a choice. We don't. That time has passed.

This is not breaking the cycle like you said. Democratic party is a dead end. It cannot be reformed.

We don't want to pay for the expensive dependents we already have that stab us like roasted pigs every chance they get. It is just a gang laying claims to things they see and ransoming it. Stop feeding the self imposed welfare recipients using our children to feed themselves.
