       @ashwin @unormal I say that often. It's the status quo. In the words of Oscar Wilde..."We are often told that the poor are grateful for charity. Some of them are, no doubt, but the best amongst the poor are never grateful. They are ungrateful, discontented, disobedient, and rebellious. They are quite right to be so. Charity they feel to be a ridiculously inadequate mode of partial restitution, or a sentimental dole, usually accompanied by some impertinent attempt on the part of the sentimentalist to tyrannise over their private lives."https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/wilde-oscar/soul-man/

       I think one practical route to new institutions is setting up a parallel leftist support infrastructure utilizing the church/religion mechanism in the us; seems like the most vulnerable spot in the right's social ecosystem to exploit for good.

       Perhaps we really have reached a population size and diversity where globally public institutions can't be stood up; but we could stand up a parallel infrastructure utilizing the sideloaded instructional framework the right already laid. Their wins then become our wins.

       must public institutions be global or is that a relic of the 20th century with vastly smaller population sizes and a vastly less polarized monoculture.

       say what you want, the church and the military are by far the most sucessful socialist organizations in the US; I guess what I'm saying is that the right has a model that it couldn't attack without self-harming, maybe we should work inside of it
