re: #666 recusancy
Well, I don’t really think this demonstration is the mainstream left’s doing.
True. So part of the problem really is that the mainstream left should be protesting, but instead are ceding the stage to the nutty. It’s a rough situation. I thought the Wisconsin protests in the main helped people engage with issues facing unions, I think it did long-term good.
A large part of the problem has been the complacency of the mainstream left, or the cowedness of it, whichever version you believe.
