America needs a new political party. Both of the current ones are bad. Republicans are way too reactionary, Democrats are pro-censorship, and both are getting more extreme. Neither appropriately represents an average person.
The problem is that politicians are controlled by corporations and lobbies, neither of which care about the problems affecting ordinary people…
those who do speak out against corporations & congressional daytrading (e.g. bernie sanders), are labeled as “socialists” or dismissed…
Yeah, it seems like only the most extreme members of congress actually do anything good. For example, Matt Gaetz and AOC teaming up on a bill recently
That’s mostly because corporations are unwilling to team up with either of them, so they have less restrictions on what they say/vote on…
Matt Gaetz just wants to improve his image among voters and challenge mainstream republicans (who usually cater to a wider audience of conservatives than him). By claiming that he has the moral high ground and attacking them, he gains an advantage.
