The right wins because it can offer real and actionable alternatives to the status quo. Those alternatives are even worse than what they’re trying to replace, but it’s still possible to get people to believe in them. Meanwhile almost nobody who doesn’t directly profit from the working class’s suffering believes in the status quo, and for good reason. So how do we stop it? Provide alternatives to the status quo from the left, and be willing to fight for them. The workers only get what they want when they’re willing to shut the country down to get it, but modern leftwing politicians don’t really have it in them, so people flock to the right instead.
