In this interview Ralph Nader finds the Democratic Party actively complicit in the current era of corporate fascism. He urges progressives to realize the Party is not only not on their side but that they actively thwart them. Nader does find some hope though in that it takes an active citizenry to motivate the progressives in Congress to fiercely fight the establishment in their own Party. Given the above we cannot continue to let our progressive representatives just go along to get along.
However, in the video below Nader notes that progressives in Congress are ignoring him and calls from other active citizen groups. This is troubling given how said progressives are capitulating to the establishment and not engaging in the necessary fight to attain the goals they profess. We also then need to publicly and repeatedly call out progressives for ignoring us and the agenda we hired them to do. No more excuses that the system is holding them back. Fight the f___ing system then if you want our continued votes.
