I wonder if this is just a symptom of late-stage capitalism in general. As long as capital is protected the system will continue to churn on regardless of what politicians say as they’re not the real controllers when all is said and done.
Sometimes democracies need a big shock in order to remind themselves of what’s important and I fear we’re entering that night before the dawn again. The potential issue is the irreparable damage this party and others like it will have on the system between here and there.
