To disregard those is a mistake. That bloc’s opinion needs to change in order for them to help do something about it. They’re needed, because it’s a big bloc. It might include many of those who don’t care enough to vote.
These people are the normal, liberal, middle-class of America and have the greatest political capital, more than any other group, because they are the breadbasket of our nation’s tax revenue and disposable-income shopping habits. Their comfort and desire to preserve that comfort is why ANY of this is happening. Yes they can be distracted by keys easily, but they’re already held by capital because again… they are comfortable.
The second strongest form of political capital is armed groups of brainless nationalists who will fight and die for their nation’s flag.
Where does progressive political capital sit on this scale? Somewhere below “unarmed protestors politely asking for civility.”
We need to understand how power works if we ever want actual change in this country, and it’s not hugboxes and performative inclusivity, it’s flags and guns and money.
I understand that. My point is why pander to the nonsensical policy prescriptions of “normal” middle class America? They are illiterate. Just tell them they’ll still have shopping malls and Netflix and we’re abolishing ice.
Ok but these people are too stupid to care about. Just jangle some keys after abolishing ice and they’ll forget about it
