Same shit, different asshole, I guess.

I think all major "left" parties of the West are really just bought-and-paid billionaire lapdogs whose entire purpose is to give the illusion of choice, that's why the only group they fight seriously is the "far left".

We've seen everything from centre-left to ultra-far-right treated with civility and kiddy gloves, and an attitude of "whelp, guess we're removing black send women's rights", but when it comes to organising of the working class, every other political organisation starts losing their mind and going nuclear.
