While I agree with your premise, its very disingenuous to imply a lot of issues wouldnt be solved/improved if Republicans blinked out of existence like a Thanos Snap.
Republicans blinking out of existence doesn’t solve the fundamental issues of capitalism that inevitably lead people to those ideologies.
Those systemic forces still exist, a new version of them would simply take their place when people tie their personal interests to the interests of capital.
and shit like this is why stuff will never get fixed.
because rather than actively embrace a solution that deals with 50% of the issue, you actively dismiss it and act like anything that doesnt deal with 100% of the problem, immediately and wholly, is a waste of time.
Thus, instead of steady progress, we have a steady march into decline.
I do agree there are some issues that would not be there without the Republicans, that’s not what I’m saying but rather saying only blaming the Republicans doesn’t solve the real issues we have
I think you both agree that it’s more complicated than that and it’s a systemic thing effecting both parties. I think he just wrote it differently than you read it
