    By making minor improvements to society he is not pushing people towards socialism but rather making capitalism more comfortable just as FDR did. As we saw back then when a progressive both makes life too comfortable and fails to push for socialism not only does it not result in systematic improvement but the improvements they do back are later reverted.

      Sure, so you’re calling everyone that is trying to make people’s lives better within the confines of the inherently oppressive system a Zionist. Sure, makes perfect sense.

        Im saying he makes surface level improvement with no attempt to make any structural changes, change the party from within, or start his own party. He is the definition of someone whos legacy will be completely undone the second he leaves office with no lasting impact.

          I get your argument but from that to being a Zionist (or a Nazi, same thing) is a stretch and one that destroys critical thinking and leftist constructive discussion.
