We should not be helping them.
We should be going all out.
And you know why?
And I won't record a political article here, which is saying it from the establishment side, but it's making the same point that I am making, which is that the capitalist class and their representatives, they are extremely malleable.
They will try and adapt to find some way of continuing to survive despite the waves of revolt that come
in every era.
And our job as revolutionaries is to push back against that.
And they say that every movement becomes the establishment at some point.
A lot of the elected officials who are in office now were once part of a movement.
This happens every 20, 30 years.
It's not a bug.
It's a feature.
of two-party politics.
So that's this guy from the Democratic establishment recognizing that, yeah, we need to present a different presentation in order to quell the revolt and so on and so forth.
And I'll tell you one thing.
You can maybe win rent fees with the approach of trying to sweet-talk the billionaire class and their representatives, but you're certainly not going to win the big-ticket items that working people need, which is universal public health care,
in actually dealing with the climate catastrophe and all of that.
If you look at the history, if you look at the history of how universal healthcare was won in nations like Canada and in Western Europe, it was absolutely because of the approach, the kind of approach that I'm using and especially building new parties for the working class.
Like for example, in Canada,
the universal public health care happened only because of the launching of what was called the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation, or the CCF, which was a new party of the working class, them winning victories in Saskatchewan and them building public health care in that province, that becoming really popular.
