[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a theory that the left has so many gaffes because the right is wealthier, more coordinated and hires professional political consulting firms at a higher frequency than the left does. [/quote]

I think what happened is that the same Russians who herded Republicans to the hateful right herded Democrats to the loony left. Democrats often have trouble presenting rational arguments for a lot of positive because a. many of us refuse to take funding or market forces seriously; and b. a lot of our positions came from a meme on Twitter and have no substance, or value.

The Democrats haven’t really drifted, but the GOP has. Their own positions from a few years ago are now derided as “liberal” policies. That’s insane.

And let’s not forget:

The only reason that the GOP has messaging hegemony is because they have the corporate media in their pocket and that’s how people frame issues. I know everyone likes to pretend that they’re independent thinkers, but the fact is that the way the message is filtered changes how we view it. [/quote]
