    This is why people both sides.

    When it comes down to voting the Democrats will always vote for fascism because they only really represent their rich doners

      Four Dems and it’s “always” for you? You know that “all” isn’t “four”, right?

            You don’t blame the scorpion for killing the frog, it’s in its nature.

            Everyone with a brain can see Republicans are violent hateful monsters. That goes without saying, which is why people focus on the people who are supposed to kill monsters but are for some reason helping the monsters.

              Tthat’s the reason people are calling out specific reps and individual Dems.

              Most of the reason people are calling out Democrats as a whole is to discourage people from voting at all.

              I can’t overstate how important primaries are. That is where you get a choice within the party.

                Yep. It is fine to call out the four Democrats and get them primaried. It isn’t fine to say all Democrats are bad because four Democrats out of the 200+ caucus voted for this.

                  Now someone’s going to come in and helpfully explain rotating villain as though that’s the case every single time.

                  If they fight against the party every time someone gives them the money to do it maybe they should fucking get kicked out of the DNC.

                  The Neoliberals who control the DNC are allowed to kick out whoever they want, but instead the party supports traitors and keeps them around. Becuae they are a convenient excuse to block real progress that idiots will always keep falling for.

                  Sorry but the Democratic party is totally impotent, and that is something you should be blaming the entire party for. That goes for the traitors, the leadership that tolerates them, and their peers who agree to prop up an impotent party.

                    I’d agree with that in some cases. Not Manchin, though that ship has sailed.

                    the Democratic party is totally impotent

                    Yeah, they don’t have the House, they don’t have the Senate, they don’t have the White House, and they don’t have the Supreme Court. They have no real power right now. If you don’t give them the votes, they can’t do shit. That’s how a Democracy works. And when they do get some votes, it’s 50-52 seats in the Senate, with a couple of those being tenuous.

                    I agree Obama shouldn’t have been so naive as to think he could be bipartisan. I agree that they’ve had opportunities in the past that they’ve missed. But it sure doesn’t seem like the party as a whole is malicious. Who saw Sinema coming?

                    If you want to change the party, vote in primaries. Don’t tell people not to vote. Don’t tell people both parties are the same; they’re very much not.

                Thank god we get those and they aren’t rigged or have SuperPACs outweighing the community they’re meant to represent. Right? …R-right?

          You’re the person who wanted to “reach across the isles” in supporting flat world and transphobia on .world, saying you should platform and debate those morons. I don’t think you can say anything about this.

            There are communities and entire instances dedicated to shit like this. The kind that will ban you for disagreeing. That’s what I was looking to prevent.

            My comments aren’t deleted. Their comments aren’t deleted. Nobody is banned just for having that opinion. That’s the difference.

        Why have a party when the party never has control of their animals?

        The Republicans have no issue voting in line
