I believe that in the U.S. right now it’s hard to even define “establishment”. We have two parties at loggerheads constantly, creating gridlock in Washington so that nothing gets done, except more bribery and corruption. I was THRILLED at the thought of a border wall, just cuz it would be a massive American infrastructure project.Polar1ty » 20 Jun 2021, 8:56 pm » wrote: ↑ Yes, that was a tongue in cheek...regardless it seems modern liberalism is defined by a passing observance/lip service to "democratic" institutions and status quo policies that benefit the oligarchs and ownership class (which liberals claim to oppose but not in reality).
Liberal regimes "manage" social dissent by instigating BLM-type "protests" and allowing ppl to vote for mouthpieces every [X] years.
Liberals ARE the establishment. That is my central thesis.
but it was shot down cuz silly *** hate Trump.
can we build high speed mag lev rail? Nope. Huge desalination plants on the coastline to deal with coming water shortages? Nope. Any big projects at all ? Nope, meanwhile China is leaving us in the dust with their new structures.
this country needs to split in two. If there is not a parting of ways, we will NEVER build anything on a national scale again. There is no “establishment” per se , if the establishment is so weak that they cannot form any agenda to BUILD SOMETHING, ANYTHING
