Shit. It really sounds around here like the American Left is settling for table scraps instead of something more substantial and radical.
Who’s settling for anything? Moore’s movie isn’t a substitute for
more radical action, or its enemy, or its dilution. If this were a
time of revolutionary ferment, you could see it that way. But it’s
not. It’s a way of getting perhaps millions of people to see things a
little differently. Anarchists, socialists, and other radicals should
keep doing their work, and thanks to Moore, they might find it a
little easier. We’re all in this together.
