RE: Identity Politics is Eroding Public Discourse
You have hit on the basis of the broken 2 party system. Politicians today keep voters focused on divisive issues while writing legislation that ONLY benefits the corporations who pay for their re-election campaign. Identity politics is a construct of the awful austerity we are locked into promoted by the politicians who benefit from corporate sponsorship who are extracting the wealth from our economy. 65% of a politicians time is spent soliciting donations!
Citizens United screwed us all!
As the American news drifts back into election fever I wonder what it would take to get the alternative media to speak of the existence of the Alternative political parties ....I makes me wonder why they cannot get any air time on the Alternative media sites ... Even the Alternative media act as if only two parties exist. And this seems to be true in most countries the local Alternative media ignores the Alternative political parties .... You would think this to be a match made in heaven ... Or is there something a foot here Watson lol
