Guest Blogger: Brunch, Genocide, and the Death of Democracy
This piece comes from guest blogger Chris Sutton, a leftist political commentator and occasional contributor to Cincinnati Delusion. In this essay, Sutton unpacks the rise of Trumpism not as an outlier, but as the inevitable outcome of decades of bipartisan failure, neoliberal decay, and systemic rot. With biting humor and a sharp Marxist lens, he challenges readers to reconsider the myths of electoral salvation and calls for a politics rooted in material reality and collective action.
