Americans have the most individualist "fuck you I got mine" ladder-pulling-upist culture in the entire world. Maybe someday we'll have a cultural revolution and come out the other side less anti-social, but in the meantime if you want anything done in this country you've got to convince people that there's something in it for them.

politics is a battle of voting for the less shitty option so you can take baby steps toward something better.

Every single time Dems have won since Carter, we have been baby stepping towards something worse. The victories for gay rights under Obama were a brief outlier in our country's otherwise uninterrupted march towards fascism.
