It seems like now is a good time to have a conversation about finding common ground between the various factions of left/progressive folks. I know this isn’t a new topic but maybe it’s worth revisiting.
What are the sticking points and what can we all agree on in the context of current-day politics?
Adding some things I think any leftist should be able to agree on:
-
Capitalism has been a strong negative influence on human existence
-
People who look, act and live differently from you deserve exactly the same human rights as you, even if they make you uncomfortable
-
Health care, food, water, and housing are human rights
Exactly! Now we just have to figure out what they want.
Basic human rights would be a start.
This is exactly what I was hoping to crystallize
