I don’t understand that. What did Democrats do or say to make you claim they’re “revolving around playing victim and identity politics”? Could you give some examples of that behavior?

I mean, maybe I am too far left or just too European, but from my POV it clearly looks as if it’s the rightwingers who are doing their part of identity politics by fighting the “woke” people vigorously.

While Democrats just want minorities and disadvantaged groups to enjoy the same rights as everybody else. Which I would appreciate.

That’s kind of true from a moral viewpoint. But those are of no good because they don’t change anything.

The Democratic Party is a spectrum from social democratic to pretty conservative politicians, no fascists.

I think Bernie Sanders is quite on the left even by European standards. But he’s not a communist.

If you want more left politics vote progressive Democrats in every election, especially those local and regional ones. That’s the way to get a left party in the USA. And that will make a more left democratic candidate for president possible and eventually some left governers and a left President.

How about names. Do you call Muhammad Ali still Cassius Clay? Just because that’s the name he was given at birth. Should people not have the right to change their name? Like it is here in Germany. And what exactly do you consider stupid about the pronouns them or they? I think they (!) are just normal pronouns, aren’t they? And for quite some time they are regularly used to replace single persons, if the gender of that person isn‘t known. I know that because when that started I was totally confused because I had learned different at school in the 70s.

Socialism is when you don’t have to do alienated work. And when noone else has to. Of course the productivity will be higher if you share the means of production with others. But it’s perfectly fine to work on your own too and harvest the fruit of your work. As you know, nobody gets rich by his own hands work, but you can get along. Capitalist exploitation starts when other people work for you and when you take the added value for your own benefits.

It’s just indication to the fact, that the biggest part of our assumed development, our democracy, or our rule of reason is but a delusion.

“Someone always looks like someone else.”

That’s so true. In Berlin, Germany, a boar became breaking news and public warning by looking like a lion!
