Now it's coming around again, and ignoring the problem or distracting the plebs with woke politics, or blaming Trump just so they can go back to 3T solutions, those paths lead to disaster.
2008 is an opportunity to change, we refused. Now it's do or die imo
And yes, all these racial issues ultimately spring from material circumstances. Anyone who disagrees is probably an unapologetic neoliberal and wants to prolong the 3T again
Success breeds success. Failure is no different in that regard. So the trick is not to shoot for the unacceptable, because the support you think you have will pull away from too large an ask. Then again,. don't ask for less than the people are willing to give either. In other words, there's risk on both sides.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
