I am often critical of leftists, but I do think they are correct that a class/economics-focused message is a better response to Trump than the hawkish Cold War bromides Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin delivered in response to his speech on Tuesday. At the same time, Bernie is ultimately not the ideal messenger for the national party. The public's appetite for a fairer economy where they're not at the mercy of unscrupulous corporate actors does not necessarily mean they have an appetite for Bernie's more sweeping vision for reform. https://x.com/jacobin/status/1897367238518485276

I think being shown what both the otherside( both maga populist and the liberal dems response) actually think of the working class is going to improve that appetite much more esspically if the labor unions get more involved . I'm a Marxist in rural deep south, and class consciousness is definitely rapidly multiplying in ways I've never seen down here
