this makes a lot of assumptions about the intent of my message.
I don’t believe in passivity, I believe direct action and violence are a necessary part of defending democracy.
However I also recognize if we expect every change to be immediate and sweeping we may neglect to continue building on that change as we have often done.
As for the ACA, no arguments here it was a smoldering pile of shit replacing a slightly larger, smoldering pile of shit.
It didn’t really replace anything. It was an attempt to build a useful and beneficial system that would support generations moving forward into the future.
But instead it was mashed to support the current generation by keeping a beneficial and useful healthcare system in the future.
People had voted for and candidates had run on healthcare reform and the head of the DNC was adamant about the Public Option as a minimum. Obama fired him once he was elected.
It wasn’t the people being demanding and impatient. It was the panicking oligarchy buying the government back from enacting the will of the people.
