How long have you had your manifesto saved and ready to spam out? This is called a gish-gallop. Drown your debate in such an overwhelming amount of verbosity and sidetrack that identifying any track to engage leaves a dozen others open with the assumption being the point was conceded.
As the other poster said, you seem really, really hung up on semantics. In regard to your comment about millennials and Gen Z rising up against social reform programs due to their cost and the "global financial ruling class" (your dog whistles are getting kind of loud here), you're as out of touch as I suspect.
Yes, there is a loud, noisy populist outrage right now, and it will temporarily drag the country and world backwards, as populist outrage has over the course of history, even in this country. There's a reason our framers created a representative republic and not a true democracy - because the original intent of the representatives was that the populous was supposed to elect the wise and solemn. Governing by populist demand leads to marginalization, internment camps, mass extrajudicial executions, and genocide.
ALL your arguing over semantics seems to be just a new gish-gallop attempt that boils down to "both sides are the same" and "globalism is the cause of all the country's problems". You sound like a Russian troll.
Actually it's from chat gpt in response to a basic prompt asking it to summarize neoliberalism and explain how it has been used to deceive and harm the American public. Aka, political science 101 stuff. This is common knowledge, so I didn't think I needed to write it myself, just as I wouldn't need to write out other obvious and basic historical facts such as what the first president did or how the American government surveilled Martin Luther King and Malcolm X during Cointelpro. Such things are common knowledge and are useful uses of AI.
In response to your allegation of dog whistling, Jewish people have been used as a scapegoat throughout history, and neoliberalism again continues this evil trend by alleging that any criticism of global capital is actually a critique of Jewish people. You have used this hateful insinuation yourself, and your doing so spreads the American political establishments antisemitism. Our oligarchs are not Jewish. But our oligarchs are responsible for engaging in regulatory capture on a global level, and for buying our formerly strong social democratic institutions and using them for self-enrichment. This began with Nixon, escalated with Reagan and Clinton, and has cemented itself since then.
We do not live in a democracy or a republic - we live in a dictatorship of the billionaire class, and we did not used to. There are still free Western countries, such as Denmark and Norway and Sweden and in some respects Germany. But America is not free, and won't be so long as oligarchs control our country.
Oh, so you're not even arguing with your own knowledge. Have the life you deserve.
I am using my own knowledge, just using contemporary tools to shorten the drafting process.
I am very much satisfied with my life, thank you
