HEY, LEFTIES. LISTEN UP.
Guy I knew had a phrase, "can't stand prosperity." It refers to people who can't take good news, who have to turn it into bad news.
That's a _lot_ of you. STOP IT.
See link. Is this a complete victory? No. Is it a step? _Yes._
The response of a _lot_ of lefties is "that's not perfect so it's shit, and you're shit for being happy about it." Not those exact words, but close, and it's _exactly_ the attitude.
If that's not what you mean you react that way, then here's the correct response:
"Fuck yeah! Now let's make them do [the next step]."
Because "that's shit and you're wrong for being happy?" THAT'S NOT ANALYSIS, THAT'S SELF-SABOTAGE AND AIDING THE ENEMY.
STOP.
