None of the " far left " Democrats care to notice how the party establishment has adopted a New McCarthyism tone in their half-cracked attacks on the Republican president Donald Trump. Even White House reporters sound like Cold War era John Birch Society " patriotic " zealots.
Just WHO decided that post-communist Russia was still arch-enemy of " OUR democracy " ? Does " OUR democracy " today recommend itself to the rest of the world ? The last few months are showing the American capitalist system in all its oppressive ugliness. The future can only bring " survival socialism " or " survival fascism ". To be sure , the Democratic Party- VICTORIOUS in 2020- will never give us even a whiff of " democratic socialism ".
The Democratic Party and the Republican Party are just RIGHT and LEFT political profiles of the American ruling class. A vote for Trump or Biden in November is a vote for more capitalist social order lunacy and belligerent foreign policy imperialism. A vote for Depression and War . And no end to racism -which has deep CLASS roots.
We need a mass American Labor Party which can truly speak for socialist writer Michael Harrington's " Other America ".
