First paragraph -- totally with you. Onboard 100%, A+
Last sentence, unhelpful, leads to republicans taking office and skullfucking the shit out of this country. I don't make that informal rules, I've just seen them play out repeatedly.
I’m glad we have some agreement at least.
I’d just like to remind you that we’ve voted Dems into a super majority 3 times in the past 25 years, and every time they find some excuse to do nothing. It’s infuriating, until you realize that they are controlled opposition in an oligarchy, and the point of modern American government is to help the richest people in the world exploit and rob vulnerable Americans for everything they’re worth. Then it’s just sad to see people continually going to bat for them.
Dems are a pressure relief valve and a fundraising organization, nothing more.
About 10 minutes ago a bunch of you started this conspiracy theory and to say the least: not buying it. Coming up with convoluted ways of explaining reality is just a distraction from the fact that it's complicated and hard to understand
What conspiracy theory? Dems are bought, for just one example look at how they lick Israel’s boots and eagerly spend our money on killing Palestinian babies because their AIPAC handler pays them to do so. That doesn’t help us at home, and it doesn’t resonate with the voter base, yet they still collect the money and do the donor bidding every time.
I want actual representation, by stark contrast.
There is no conspiracy here other than the apparent belief that Democrats have democracy and the American people’s best interests in mind. Sure, there’s Bernie, but he won’t call himself a Dem - the reason why is no conspiracy, and that should tell you a lot about the Dem party.
A dodge of the obvious point I made, and a poor one
