    if you can’t see any difference (from the perspective of the American working class, which seems to be the focus here)

    Oh no it isn’t. That seems to be your fundamental false premise here. A sizeable majority of the working class in America support the Democrats, the most warmongering party in the US. They are owed no solidarity from us for this.

      This is not even what I’m talking about, but it’s also totally out of step with AES states’ approach to the American working class.

        You can point out what the average American thinks without arguing we need to tail it and call it correct.

            If you’re not doing that then stop being defensive. Based on the positions that you’ve denied we should be in agreement. Just accept what we’re saying and move on. All you seem to be arguing now is that you didn’t say what you implied.

              You’re supporting genocide!

              “I’m not doing anything like that, read what I’m saying”

              Why so defensive???

                You keep being defensive and saying that we are lying about what you are saying, but since so many of us drew that conclusion it should be clear that your statements could imply that “we need to support democrats because they are slightly better than Republicans.” If that is truly not your position then we have nothing to argue about except how your statements were interpreted. Why don’t you just say “I agree with what you are saying, and I never meant to imply the position you interpreted me to have?”
