Had Corbyn not been a coward and actually cleaned that party by purging the Blairites, this wouldn’t have happened in the first place.

If you spend decades trying to work within the system and it’s norms, you only see things within those terms. They’ve basically spent their entire political careers trying to stop one ghoulish policy after the next. Improving things isn’t in their vocabulary of what’s actually possible, just stopping things from getting worse.

Old men whose careers were built during the great hell of neoliberalism. They have been conditioned to lose for decades. I’m sure 70s Bernie and Corbyn would have acted much differently.
