    “Third Way” (mentioned in the image) is the idea that left progressive politics are fully compatible with private interests/Capitalism. It’s basically Ayn Rand free market philosophies restamped as a leftist ideal.

      I listened to some clip from a thirdway person today. I’ll try to find it. The dude unironically was talking about how they were vital in fighting Bernie Sanders and getting Hillary Clinton to win the primary. Like, straight up, “we’ll fucking do it again” kind of vibes.

      Hillary Clinton fucking lost to Trump. Like, he was literally boasting about getting Trump elected basically.

      Fuck, I gotta find the clip. It was wild.
