    And I doubt most of us are “duped”. We know this is how it works, and the best strategy is still to keep butting back up against the catch until we have reach the conditions to lift it. Every Dem victory is like a pause button on the rightward slide while we boost candidates for the next primary.

      I don’t even live in the states anymore and I still vote. The rightward slide affects the whole world, can you imagine what will happen to Ukraine if Trump wins? And after Ukraine, it’s war in the Baltics. And then there’s Taiwan. And South Korea is probably about to be in trouble too, I’m sensing.

      I have full clarity. When the devil is going to take you unless you play the game, you keep playing. He knows you know it’s rigged, but you keep playing until maybe you can pull a fast one. It’s the only hope.
