Why Stop at Removing Biden?
https://crimethinc.com/BidenDoomed
Biden’s refusal to step aside is a microcosm of an entire civilization at an impasse. How can the Democrats blithely set about losing what they have insisted could be the last democratic election in the history of the US?
Centrist governments have focused on repressing the movements that would form the first line of defense against a fascist takeover, while strengthening the institutions that the fascists will use to impose their rule. Having betrayed what passed as the “left” within the Democratic Party, the party machinery is now betraying the center—the one group it ostensibly exists to serve.
It turns out that when your goal is to force inequality and oppression on people, eventually fascism becomes a more efficient option than democracy.
If some Democrats are suddenly prepared to throw out their duly appointed candidate, why stop there? Why not throw out the entire party machine that got them here, and party politics for good measure?
