Abandon Harris
2024-10-14 1:15 PM
The Abandon Harris strategy is for people of conscience to punish Kamala Harris at the ballot box and then take the “blame”—or claim the credit—for her electoral defeat. Punishing the vice-president for her genocide would send a clear signal to the political landscape that genocide is not politically viable. It would create a political earthquake, soliciting a reckoning in the political parties. The Abandon Harris campaign’s goal is to ensure that Kamala Harris loses the swing states. (text/plain)

The election as a farce: Donald Trump and the rise of the autocrats
Claus Leggewie
2020-11-05 2:38 PM
To elect a demagogue is always dangerous, but it does not condemn a country to the collapse of its democracy. Strong institutions can keep corrupt or autocratic leaders in check. That is exactly what the U.S. Constitution is designed to do, and for much of our history it has been successful in doing so. (text/plain)

Joachim Bischoff
2020-11-02 6:32 PM

Treading in Deep Waters
Greg Godels
2020-10-02 5:36 PM
As one good reason for voting for Biden: should he win, Democrats will not be able to continually blame all of our sorry politics and capitalism’s contradictions on Trump. And the experience of a Biden government might well hasten the defection from a moribund Democratic Party. (text/plain)

"No one will be safe in Biden's America!" This was Donald Trump's message. The theme, for three days: Danger. Danger through crime, through China, through the supposedly radical agenda of the Democrats - and through "riots, looting, arson and violence" in the country's cities. (text/plain)

Jacob Reimann and Thorsten Denkler
2020-08-17 5:36 PM
The appointment of Kamala Harris as Biden's vice candidate is now the result of the Democratic establishment's pathological fear of anything that could even begin to smell left.

Conrad Schuhler and Judith Duesberg
